How to change the default
behaviour of the numeric "Enter" key to behave as a
Tab key or Enter |

Detailed Description:
V12 includes an enhancement to customize the behaviour of the numeric Enter
key when a user presses it.
Users may notice that in Version 12, the default behaviour
of the "Enter" key has changed.
This has been brought about by the fact that Visual LANSA defaults
the x_run parameter FLDX, which determines whether the Numeric Keypad Enter key acts as a Field Exit key or not (i.e. treat this enter key as a Tab).
In previous versions, this defaulted to Y (to be a tab key) however it has never behaved as expected.
This has been
rectified in V12.
Solution:
If you would prefer to have the Numeric Enter key behave similar
to the Keyboard Enter (i.e. not to tab) then there is a simple way
to customize this.
Change the x_run parameter FLDX to N (FLDX=N) in the Start file or in the X_LANSA.PRO. This will give you the desired effect without any code changes or recompiling.
