How to prevent CTRL+V in a specific form - 2009SP1

Nabuco

Does anybody know whether it is possible to prevent users from using CTRL+V (paste) in a specific form and if - how to do?

Thanks in advance

There exists a property PasteIsValid on table-level which can be set to false. Don't think it's available on form-level though.

No, I don't think you can prevent this.

The PastIsValid property Luc mentioned is available in a Table level only and applies to complete records, not individual fields.

You could create a MenuButton and set ShortCutKey of an empty MenuItem to Ctrl+V. As long as this form is in focus it won't let you paste anything into this form.

Thanks a lot - The empty menubutton Works perfectly

This solution does provide no more enforcement than just telling the user to not do it. It is just a minor obstacle.
Have you ever heard about Shift+Ins or the right click context menu?
