Perhaps I'm not describing it properly.
I understand the new Window1 approach.
What I'm dealing with here is an existing Window.
I have several Windows.
Window1
Window2
Window3
In Window1 I have declared a property known as relatedWindow as
Window
I set relatedWIndow to Window2 by the following:
relatedWindow = Window2
Then I try to set values of properties, e.g., a string property,
in Window2 via the relatedWindow property by:
relatedWindow.aProperty = "Something or other...."
This does not compile.
Hope that explains my situation better.
The relatedWindow is not JUST a plain Window, it is a Window2
A Window does not have a property called "aProperty" but a Window2
does
The problem is that you're not using the right kind of variable
Actually, aProperty is just a generic name for any sort of property
that one could declare. Sort of like myFoo.
If you declare relatedWindow as Window2 this would work
The problem is that I want something that is more generic for ANY
sort of Window. Not just a Window2 or Window3. I'm looking for
something that can be set to either a Window2 or Window3 or WindowX.
So, if I understand correctly, you have, say, 3 windows (Win1, Win2,
Win3). All have a property, say MyProperty As Boolean. In your main
window (an other window than Win1, Win2 and Win3), you have a
property, e.g MyWindow As window. MyWindow can be a Win1, Win2 or a
Win3. You want to modify the MyWindow.MyProperty since these 3
windows has a MyProperty property. Is that right?
Well, I already tried. The problem is that you can't subclass a
window (you can't have a class whose Super is "window", in RB).
You will have to do so (if I understood your question):
if MyWindow isa Win1 then
Win1(MyWindow).MyProperty=true
elseif MyWindow isa Win2 then
Win2(MyWindow).MyProperty=true
elseif MyWindow isa Win3 then
Win3(MyWindow).MyProperty=true
end if
Hope this help_______________________________________________
