For more information on handling Progress events with triggers, see the Progress Programming Handbook .

NOTE: Unlike earlier support for VBX controls, you do not have to handle key function events as KeyPress events. With VBX controls, you had to trap key functions as KeyPress events in a VBX control event handler, then apply them to the VBX control-container widget to handle with corresponding key function event triggers. With ActiveX controls, your triggers on the control-frame widget now handle the supported function events automatically.
