Just getting back into RB programming from the DOS days, working on some conversions. I have often wordered and am still surprised that there is no search button among the pre-defined buttons in forms, even in the wonderful 6.5++ win. I am trying to code one in an EEP button. It works but it creates another instance of the form which I do not want. Is there another way? I have searced the archives for this group (with which I have been in constant touch) with no luck. If next, prev can be programmed then surely find can be programmed.
Robert,
Welcome to the Official R:BASE List Server!
Remember, we are only limited by our imagination.
Tell me exactly what you are trying to do. Post it here on this list or send me a private e-mail at mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] We'll do our best to help you upgrade to the wonderful 6.5++ for Windows.
Have you looked into "NewStuff" demo bundled with 6.5++ for Windows for samples?
You may also want to look at a few conversion articles posted on:
From The Edge: http://www.razzak.com/fte
Depending on your need, you can always close and start another instance in a form by using CLOSEWIN (EEP only command).
The transition from 6.5++ for Windows to 7.0 for Windows will be much smoother and of course there are "no boundaries" in 7.0.
Good Luck!
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
