_INCSEEK System Variable

  • Article

Specifies the time interval that is open for keystrokes within an incremental seek such as within a Listbox.

_INCSEEK = nValue

Parmeters

  • nTicks
    Specifies the time interval in seconds. Internal timing is measured in clock "ticks," which are each about 1/18th of a second. If you store an integer or decimal value to _INCSEEK, Visual FoxPro may store it as a slightly different value due to rounding to ticks. _INCSEEK can range from 0.05 to 5.5 seconds (1 to 100 ticks).

Remarks

In earlier versions of Visual FoxPro, the value for _DBLCLICK also determined the incremental search interval. Now, you can uncouple these values by specifying a separate value for each.
