We have the latest version of 7.6. I want our people to be able to open multiple forms at the same time. At present, RBASE only allows one form open at one time. Is there a setting I can change to allow an individual to open multiple forms?
Jim, When opening a form (EDIT USING formname), use the additional option of "MDI AS 'alias name'. Example: EDIT USING formname ORDER BY orderbyclause MDI AS 'aliasname' For complete details and a sample application to demonstrate the practical use of MDI forms, refer to 2008 SAT Applications: 2008 SAT Sample Applications: http://www.rupdates.com/sat2008/ -- R:BASE 7.6 Folder: \RBTI\2008_RBG76_SAT\DesigningMDIApplications Database: MDIForms Associated Forms: .
