I think so.
Here is the code (snippet)
===============
case AddNoteDoneButton: //Save the data and leave the form
frm = FrmGetActiveForm();
wIDField=FrmGetObjectIndex(frm,AddNoteNoteField);
pCtlField=(FieldPtr) FrmGetObjectPtr(frm,wIDField);
FldCompactText(pCtlField);
textLen=FldGetTextLength(pCtlField);
if (FldGetTextLength(pCtlField)>0) // We can add a note since we have
something
{
hText=FldGetTextHandle(pCtlField);
FldSetTextHandle(pCtlField,NULL);
pText=(CharPtr)MemHandleLock(hText);
addNote(pText,ADD_NOTE_NOTE );//inserts note into database
MemHandleUnlock(hText);
// FldFreeMemory( pCtlField );
}
FrmGotoForm(PalmLinkPatientNotesForm);
handled=true;
break;
==================
Originally I did not have the line
FldSetTextHandle(pCtlField,NULL);
and adding the line:
FldFreeMemory( pCtlField );
would cause it to crash which is why it is commented out.
In this example I only have one text field on the whole form. (so it is the
simplest case)
Thanks,
Jim
