    Default typing from right to left

    I am looking for a way to write from right to left (editable fields).
    I found once an xtra that seemed to allows this...but forgot the name

    Is there any one who knows its name ?
    Or any other mean to reverse the typing ?

    thx

    Default Re: typing from right to left

    The proper things (I assume) to do is let a forign language operating
    system provide the text support.

    Otherwise one can accomplish the effect in Lingo with on keyUp, keyDown
    handlers trapping the normal text entry, set field to left justift, turn
    off word wrap and keep the editing requirements simple. Simlating all of
    the normal text insert/edit facilities can be a pain.
