removing virtual keyboard

[Brad]

I would like it once the user presses a button the virtual keyboard goes away. It covers up the search results and I can't seem to find the solution.

Usually the user is expected to press on the "Done" key for the keyboard to disappear.

Brad, if you know a little Java, you can use AGraham's reflection library to access Android's InputMethodManager

Sorry to say I can't give an example, but if AGraham sees this thread, he will be able to give you a code example. He is extremely helpful.

Thanks..I know java but haven't played with the reflection library

@Erel.. Some of the users can barely operate their smartphones so the more user friendly this app is the better. BTW I shaved a couple of days of dev time off of my recent proof of concept program for one of our large clients using B4A. :sign0060:

Is this still the case, my keyboard doesn't display "Done" button even if the Force Done is ticked in the designer for the TextField
