sure do and I always set the var to a text data type prior to the 'getproperty' and back to an int,date,numeric...data type after. ----- Original Message ----- From: Jim Belisle To: RBASE-L Mailing List Sent: Monday, November 17, 2008 2:26 PM Subject: [RBASE-L] - componentids
When I create component ids, I understand the GETPROPERTY 'componentid' TEXTVALUE vcomponentid will give me the value of the component id. When dealing with numbers such as weight, would you still use the TEXTVALUE function? Jim
