Do you have any ideas to help him out? |
| Tip of the Week: |
Keep on top of users' changes
You're probably familiar with creating traditional "Work With" style panels. You may add several fields that act as filters to assist the user in selecting his records. Many times you place a function key on the screen so the user can refresh the subfile. In DDS there is a keyword of "CHANGE." That keyword applies to the record level and field level. When used, if the contents of an input-capable field are changed, the indictor you selected comes on. Site expert John Kohan offers a sample program and advice for accomplishing this. |
