Hi,
I do something a bit more complicated - I set the readonly properties of
controls on a form depending on properties set for "it's" cursor - this in
the form init:
LOCAL i, i0, in, j, aMm[1], cs, lup, oObj, oPage, lcOldErr, lOK
lcOldErr = ON("ERROR")
FOR EACH oPage IN thisform.pFrameBase1.pages
FOR i = 1 TO AMEMBERS( aMm,oPage,2)
oObj = EVALUATE('oPage.'+ aMm[i])
IF UPPER(oObj.BASECLASS) $ 'TEXTBOXCOMBOBOX'
cs = <cursorname>.'+oObj.CONTROLSOURCE
lOK = .T.
ON ERROR lOK = .F.
lup = DBGETPROP(cs,"FIELD","UPDATABLE")
on error &lcOldErr
DO case
CASE lOK AND UPPER(oObj.BASECLASS) = 'TEXTBOX'
oObj.READONLY = !lup
CASE lOK AND UPPER(oObj.BASECLASS) = 'COMBOBOX'
oObj.ENABLED = lup
endcase
ENDIF
NEXT i
ENDFOR
yet another reason why, despite being attracted to the idea, I haven't used
scatter name or other forms of business object - I'm just too comfortable
with cursors.
