Mark, et al:
My purpose is to filter individual keystrokes as a user is typing in
an input field. The filter intercepts keyDown messages and, if a
field is defined as a positive integer in the Data Dictionary,
terminates the message if the key pressed is not between "0" & "9".
If the field is defined as an uppercase English alphabetic field, the
filter terminates keyDown messages if the key is not between "A" &
"Z".
My underling question is:
Suppose I want to define a field as an uppercase German alphabetic
field. Which high-order characters does the filter pass to the field
and which ones should be rejected?
