_INCSEEK System Variable

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

_INCSEEK = nTicks

Parameters

  • 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. The default value for _INCSEEK is 0.50.
