    EventThe event occurs before a data key is sent to the host.
    EventThe event occurs when the cursor moves into a different field.
    EventThis event is triggered when an event defined by the DefineEvent method occurs. Events defined in this way remain defined as long as your InfoConnect session lasts, or until they are removed using the RemoveEvent or ClearEvents methods.
