WordPerfect® 6.0 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: The StyChild! style for dialog controls cannot be activated as an initial choice when the dialog box becomes active after the parent has been selected. For example, when in the control you use the style called StyChild!, and the parent control is selected, the child appears on the screen and must then be selected by either pressing 1. or the numonic.
There is no way to make a child appear as an "initial" choice where all the user would need to do is begin typing, instead of the extra step of having to choose it.

Example:

DlgCreate(Kid;"Child Example")
DlgControl(CtrlCheckBox!;a;"First Control in the Dialog"
DlgControl(CtrlCheckBox!;b;"Parent Control in the Dialog"
DlgControl(CtrlText!;c;"~Name:";StyChild!+StyDancing!)
DlgEnd
