C++ Builder IDE >> Borland Builder Editor PROBLEMS

by Javier Diaz » Tue, 20 Sep 2005 00:40:18 GMT

Hi

I have a very bizarre problem in my IDE.

I've using the Borland Builder C++ 6.0 for a long time and suddenly today
something very wierd start to happen with the arrow keys (Up/Down and
Left/Right). Once in the editor if I press any of these keys the windows in
which one I'm working on lost the focus, similar to when you press Alt, but
with the difference no specific menu is being selected, but definitely the
Borland main window has the focus because if you press any of the menu
shortcuts letter, that menu get displayed.

Exactly the same is happening if I tried in the copies of Borland Builder
C++ 5.0 and Delphi I have in this pc.

Of course I tried another applications just to make sure was not a keyboard
problem. I tried Visual Studio, Word, etc but everything was ok, I even
tried using a different keyboard but the problem if only ocurring in the
Borland applications.

Last thing I did, was unistall and re-install Borland, but still the same
problem.

I would really really appreciate any help, as I don't see no other way out
than to format the Hard Disk :-(

Thanks in advance

Javier Diaz

Javier,

Make a simple BCB app in which you have a KeyDown event and see if the arrow keys
come in to it.

C++ Builder IDE >> Borland Builder Editor PROBLEMS

Hi

Thanks for your answer.

I'm afraid something is totally wrong in my PC and it's affecting Borland.
I wrote a very simple application, with a memo, an edit and one button. When
you are inside the memo or inside the edit, if you press any arrow key, the
behaviour you get is similar to when you press Tab to move around the
controls in your form.

Also I have detected that the F12 to toggle beteween form/unit, it's not
working and now the F11 is doing both things, showing the Inspector and the
toggle oper.

I haven't check how many combinations of the Default keymapping, which is
what I'm using, are not working, but most probably a few of them are not.

All this started after I installed the Office 2003 Pro in my PC. I have
unistall the Office, and also the BCB, and re-installl only the BCB again,
but unsucessfull.

Any idea, pleaseee?

Thanks
Javier

Borland Builder Editor PROBLEMS

I was just going to suggest that some other program is intercepting the
keystrokes. It's probably not MS Office, but any program that defines
keystrokes for its own purposes, like Trillian (Trillian's default
keystrokes caused me to lose a couple of keystrokes I depended upon in BCB)
or a screen capture program, like MWSnap, could be the culprit.

What else have you installed lately? Or you could close all running
programs one at a time, until BCB starts working again -- then you'll know
which program was at fault.

1. Borland Builder C++ 6 It's tutorial on the Editor 

	I was just wondering if anyone else is using this program in
the Enterprise edition as I'm a little disgusted with the Tutorial on
the Editor.  Worked fine withe the exception that one line of code
always brings up an error.  This line is done in the Save Command and
it's the line they give themselves in the tutorial.  

	Perhaps I'm stupid or something but trying to learn.  I also
have Microsoft Visual C++ so play around with both.  Any help out
