Par2: Template modification to pass parameters - C4
1999-03-08 -- Arnor Baldvinsson
 
The template change is easy. Open one file in the C4/template directory, ctlbrowa.tpw. First locate a line starting with: #CONTROL(BrowseUpdateButtons In my template this is line 120. Next locate this line: #PROMPT('&Update Procedure',PROCEDURE),%UpdateProcedure this is line nr. 127 in my template. Add the following line right below it: #PROMPT('Parameters:',@s255),%UpdateProcedureParameters Next locate this line: %InstancePrefix:CallUpdate ROUTINE This is nr. 500 in my template after adding the line above. Few lines below you will find this code: CLOSE(%ListView) LOOP GlobalRequest = LocalRequest VCRRequest = VCRNone %UpdateProcedure LocalResponse = GlobalResponse Change it to: CLOSE(%ListView) LOOP GlobalRequest = LocalRequest VCRRequest = VCRNone #IF(%UpdateProcedureParameters) %UpdateProcedure %UpdateProcedureParameters #ELSE %UpdateProcedure #END LocalResponse = GlobalResponse This does it - you now have a parameter prompt on the update buttons properties (action tab) where you specify the parameters in the normal format: (Loc:MyField, Loc:MyOtherField) ie, with the surrounding paranthesis.
