[CLOSED] Combobox - Validation

[adelaney]

I have a combobox that has TypeAhead enabled - and we want that. However, I need to do 3 things. 1) I need to validate that a valid entry was selected. 2) I need to validate that the entry selected is not the same as the old value. 3) Once validation is completed successfully, I need to enable a button on the page to allow an update. I am using these settings:

.SelectOnTab(True) _
            .MultiSelect(False) _
            .TypeAhead(True) _
            .ForceSelection(True) _
            .ValidateOnBlur(True) _
            .ValidateOnChange(False) _
            .Validator(Sub(vldtr)
                           vldtr.Fn = "validateCombo"
                       End Sub) _
            .QueryMode(DataLoadMode.Local)

And everything is working except if the user presses the enter key to capture the TypeAhead, the validation does not fire. How can I capture that event/key stroke to fire the validation as well?

Thanks.

Hi,

What about to do not set up this

.ValidateOnChange(False)

leaving the default true?

That doesn't work. It interfers with me having the TypeAhead and validating that a record from the combo has actually been selected. For now, I have bound a listener to the Select event at the "onReady" event. That seems to be workking - at least until I find otherwise. You may close the ticket.
