How can this be done in 7.5? What am I missing?
Marc,
Actually, in 6.5++ for Windows, the (CVAL('Form_Field_Name'))
return the text caption of that button.
You can achieve the same functionality in 7.x/V-8 Turbo for
Windows by using the CAPTION property as following:
-- Start
SET VAR vButton TEXT = NULL
GETPROPERTY <ButtonComponentID> CAPTION vButton
RETURN
-- End
vButton will return the text caption for that button.
That's all there is to it!
