[RBASE-L] - RE: Syntax for Web Controls in a form

Thanks Emmitt!

That helps too. Is there a way to make the entire image show up within the browser control rather than just the top left corner?

Mike,

 

You cannot set the property of a component in a form you haven’t opened yet.  If the form “myformname” is the one with the browser, open the form first then issue the property command in, say, the on after start eep.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Syntax for Web Controls in a form

 

Hi All,

 

I would like to display various picture files (pdf, jpg and maybe tif or bmp) using a Web Browser control within a form.  I see there are three types of Web Browser controls, a Variable, a DB and a "plain". I am having trouble with the syntax for the property command to change what is displayed.

I have a form with just 1 control in it, the Web Control. The Component ID is docbig (my lingo for a big document).

 

What I am trying that is not working is.....

 

PROPERTY docbig URL 'c:\docs\00020.jpg'

EDIT USING myformname

 

What am I doing wrong? Which of the 3 web controls should I be using??

 

Mike
