Hi,

I have a acustom csreen with some pushbuttons namely "PRINT LABEL" and "PRINT LABEL1".When I click on these buttons.,respective custom smartform is called!

Now HOT KEY for button "PRINT LABEL " should be ALT1 and for "PRINT LABEL1" should be ALT2.

Is this possible?I guess function keys can only be with CTRL and SHIFT.Please confirm.

Also for these push buttons,If i do need to assign the HOT KEY/Function key,in the details under GUI status,when i define the KEYS for the psh buttons,what value should I put in FUNCTION TYPE?Also how do I call the smartform using the HOT KEYS for these push buttons.

Hope I could explain the requirement in details.

Thanks again for your time.

ALT is reserved for shortcuts to menu, not to toolbar...

try to create a menu with only one function code and see if it is called directly when using hot key
