Hey folks,
I never got this to work (and I've been sidetracked with other projects
for the past week).
I now created a cursor(Menu_pass2) that represents the next level down
in the menu system, and has a boolean field called Sub_OPT. For the
column in the Grid within question - I initial set the Control to be the
Text box instead of the Button. Then, with the Form Init I have the
following code:
thisform.GrdSubMenu.SetAll("DynamicCurrentControl", ;
"IIF(!Menu_pass2.Sub_OPT, ;
'Thisform.GrdSubMenu.Column3.Dummy_Txt', ;
'Thisform.GrdSubMenu.Column3.Sub_Opt')", "Column3")
However, when the Form runs - the column continues to ONLY show text -
and no buttons - and the content is True if it's a Sub-Menu option.
Where as - if its True - then I actually want it to change and show a
Button instead of the Text.
Thanks in advance,
Kurt

I tried that - but, it didn't work...
Am going to try a different tack - and try creating an extra field that
designate (via a Boolean) whether an option is a reference to a Sub-menu
level. Although, this will still be dependent upon the
"DynamicCurrentControl" - and am hoping I can still make it work...

DynamicCurrentControl is a strange property, which requires quoted
strings as arguments.
Try this:
DynamicCurrentControl =
[=iIIF(Eof("Menu_Pass3"),"Thisform.grdSubMenu.Column3.Dummy_Txt",
"Thisform.grdSubMenu.Column3.Sub_Opt")]
