>From the Edge: Using #Variables in Forms
Section:                Entry/Exit Procedures (EEPs)
Chapter:                Running R:BASE Your Way! 
Platform:               R:BASE 2000 (ver 6.5++) for Windows
====================================================================

When working with very complex forms, particularly when using the 
form-in-a-form, multiple forms running at the same time, following 
Form_System_Variables can be very useful in EEPs.

. #Form_FormName
. #Form_TableName
. #Form_ColumnName

#Form_FormName: Holds the name of the current form. 

#Form_TableName: To capture the name of the current table in a form.

#Form_ColumnName: To capture the name of a column or variable based 
on current cursor position. The result of #Form_ColumnName defined 
in EEP may vary based upon Table Level EEP or Field Level EEP.

If Table Level EEP, then, #Form_ColumnName variable will contain 
the name of the field the cursor was in when the table was exited.

If Field Level EEP, then, #Form_ColumnName variable will contain 
the name of the column or variable the EEP is run from.

Have Fun!

Very Best Regards,

Razzak.
