ABC: Pre-selecting start point in a browse 1998-11-17 -- Bill Owen Newsgroups: topspeed.products.c5ee > >When I enter a browse from a menu selection, I want to pre-select the > >record which appears as selected. ... > Try... > PYR:AutoInc = G:CurrentPayer !

Reset from current value Thanks for the assistance. When I couldn't make BRW1.ResetFromBuffer() work I went looking in the manuals again and stumbled over the solution. As I told a friend yesterday, it would be a 3 line no-brainer in COBOL and probably just as simple in CW. Here it is: BRW1:StartAtCurrent = True PYR:AutoInc = G:CurrentPayer Access:Payer.Fetch(PYR:KeyAutoInc) place it in the ThisWindow.Init procedure embed point 7600 (after the files are open AND before the browse initialization). -- Bill Printed May 5, 2024, 1:00 pm This article has been viewed/printed 35120 times.
