ABC: Template change to allow parameter passing to forms 1999-03-30 -- Ken Wagner Newsgroups: topspeed.products.c5ee
GentleCoders:
A big tip of the hat (not dunce either) to Arnor, David, Russell, Steve
et.al.
The Update Form procedure overloading with amnesia in the calling browse
may be solved.
ABBrowse.TPW
At line #1903 change:
#PROMPT('&Update Procedure',PROCEDURE),%UpdateProcedure
to
#PROMPT('&Update Procedure',PROCEDURE),%UpdateProcedure
#PROMPT('Parameters:',@s255),%UpdateProcedureParameters !(Add this
line)
At line #1931 change:
#IF(%UpdateProcedure)
#ADD(%ProcsCalled,%UpdateProcedure)
#IF(~%EditInPlace)
%ManagerName.AskProcedure = %(INSTANCE(%ProcsCalled))
#ENDIF
#ENDIF
to
#IF(%UpdateProcedure)
#IF (%UpdateProcedureParameters)
#ADD(%ProcsCalled,%UpdateProcedure&%UpdateProcedureParameters)
!New line for Parms with "&"
#ELSE
#ADD(%ProcsCalled,%UpdateProcedure) !If no parms
passed by browse
#ENDIF
#IF(~%EditInPlace)
%ManagerName.AskProcedure = %(INSTANCE(%ProcsCalled))
#ENDIF
#ENDIF
Thanks Arnor, for the C4 template patch to use as a guide. As Arnor
stated: "You now have a parameter prompt below the update combodrop
where you can specify the parameters in the normal format"
e.g. (CustCode,StartDate,EndDate), remember to include the parentheses.
Amazin'. Works.
Does the code look right to you? Corrections & improvements welcome.
G'day, mates.
