Marc,
RBTI_Form_ColName is no longer associated with buttons on RBase forms. Neither is
Form_FieldName.
On the EEPs tab of the Object Property for the Button you are trying to get to work,
in the "Custom"
location should have this Format:
TestButn.eep using 'Button1'
Where 'Button1' would be the value you will test for in your eep like
Switch (.%1)
Case 'Button1'
-- If Button1 was pressed, the code here would execute
break
Case 'SomeOtherButton'
break
Default
Break
Endsw
return
