James, Property command always take a text value
Try set var vText TEXT = (CTXT(.vsgqty)) PROPERTY comp_qty TEXTVALUE .vText Dennis McGrath -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jim Belisle Sent: Friday, October 10, 2014 8:40 AM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - Copy var to real field I have a field (REAL data) that most of the time is manually entered. However under certain circumstances I want a variable to update the field. This field has the component ID of comp_qty. I tried the PROPERTY command: PROPERTY comp_qty TEXTVALUE .vsgqty That does not work. I am sure this is simple but I I can't seem to get it.
