No, when the form is loaded everything is allright. It works just fine.
But as soon as the FldInsert Function is passed. There is nothing in the
Field and the variable is empty. But when I manually fill the variable
at the place where it was read, everything goes well.
I could make functions that check for the value and then make a
checking loop and assign the variable on an other way. But It should
work,

Could you be resetting the global variable when the form loads?

Hi all,
I have a program that copies a decimal value between 50 and 150 From
an
field to an other field. I get the user input. Save the data in a
CharPtr.
In the debugger is see the value coming in the memory. So far so good.
Then
I switch to an other Form and Want to put the Value in that Screen. I
would
think that would be easy. I use FldInsert. But When the Functions
starts the
Pointer to the Char is gone. It Points \0 and the Char is empty. I
have
tried all kinds of things. How is this possible.
Is it possible to exchange data between fields, It should be, or not.
It is just driving me crazy, I tried all kind of things. I just don't
know
how to handle this. When I assign my own value to the CharPtr, like
this
CharPtr Pulse = "60"; everything goes allright and the figure is
printed in
the Field. Has It something to do with the FieldPtr that doesn't exist
anymore when you are in another Field.
HELP ME,
Thanks already, Patrick Heynen
