Marc,
Use the following syntax:
Button.EEP USING button_value
Also, make sure that you have Button.EEP in the same directory.
On the other hand, if your object is to get the name of currently focused field in a form, then try:
SET VAR vFieldName = .RBTI_Form_ColName
Using the Next Generation R:BASE 7.0 for Windows, you also have the following options:
RBTI_Form_FormName to get the form name RBTI_Form_TblName to get the table name RBTI_Form_ColName to get the column name RBTI_Form_ColValue to get the column value RBTI_Form_VarName to get the variable name RBTI_Form_VarValue to get the variable value RBTI_DBGrid_Column to get the DB Grid column name
Enjoy the Unbounded Possibilities with Industrial-Strength, Multi-User, True-Relational DBMS.
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.

This should be simple but I can't seem to get it to work.
I have a menu form with buttons. The eep should get the button name, close the window, then run a command file in a case statement.
I see how the example works in Rrbyw4 but when I trace my eep the var gets set to .%1 not the button name.
I use to use SET VAR vbutton = (CVAL'form_field_name')) but that doesn't seem to work. So, I replaced that with set var VmenuOption = .%1 but no luck so far.
sorry about asking so many questions
