My questions are so lame that it's embarrassing, but I still need answers.
I have an UNDO button on a form to revert every field back to it's original
value. The DB Navigator Cancel button doesn't revert lookup variables, and
neither will any of the preset EEPs, so I built my own button.
In Table Settings - On Row Entry EEP, I use "GETPROPERTY CompID TEXTVALUE
vcolvalue" to collect each DBEdit value.
Then, on the UNDO button EEP I use "PROPERTY CompID TEXTVALUE .vcolvalue."
This works fine for all my fields, including Text, Integer, Date and Note.
The problem is when I replace a DBEdit Integer control with a DBEdit Spin
control. I can't make the value revert with this technique EVEN THOUGH a
DBEdit Spin control value WILL revert with the standard DB Navigator
Cancel button. (But I don't want TWO buttons.)
I'd like to use the Spin control because it's just...well...COOLER, but I
need to be able to undo it. Any thoughts?
Fred,
Did you know that you can revert or cancel anything by simply using the one
PROPERTY command?
Just place a Push Button, Bit Button, Speed Button, or Office button with
the following Custom EEP.
PROPERTY TABLE <FormTableName> 'CANCEL'
RETURN
Where <FormTableName> is the actual table associated with the form and all
related DB Edits, including the DB Spin Edit.
Hope that helps!
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
