Tabbing and DATA–ENTRY–RETURN

When you set the DATA–ENTRY–RETURN attribute of the SESSION handle to TRUE, focus changes to the next tab item for any fill-in that receives a RETURN event. However, if the fill-in is the last tab item in the frame family, instead of tabbing back to the first tab item, focus remains in the fill-in and a GO event is applied to all frames of the frame family. Thus, in p-foftab.p, pressing the RETURN key in field3 causes a GO event to be applied to each of frames f1, f2, f3, and f4. The GO event is also applied in order from the innermost child frame to the root. As indicated in Figure 25–2, the event fires in order of frame f4, f2, f3, and then f1.
