If I remember right it will work with buttons
or columns (not sure about variables) so this
is why I went this route.

I could have one eep for each form if I wanted.

Thanks Jim

I never knew about the .#Form_columname option.
I must have been fishing that day.

SET VAR vbutton = (SGET(.#FORM_COLUMNNAME,4,1))
SET VAR vbuttn = (STRIM(.vbutton))
SET VAR vbutn = (LUC(.vbuttn))

SWITCH (.vbuttn)
  CASE 'EXIT'
    --Leave, but check if something needed to be
saved
    CLOSEWINDOW
    BREAK
  CASE 'SAVE'
    SAVEROW
    BREAK
  CASE 'LEAV'
    --Leave, don't save row
    DELROW
    CLOSEWINDOW
    BREAK
ENDSW

I follow the same method when working on the
getting the percent.

SET VAR vm_button = (SGET(.%1,4,1))
SET VAR vm_buttn = (STRIM(.vm_button))
SET VAR vm_butn = (LUC(.vm_buttn))

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
