Par2: Template modification to change "Ok" to "Delete" when called to delete 1999-03-26 -- Arnor Baldvinsson When a form is called to confirm the delete and you wish to change the text of the Ok
button, you can:
(SHP)
>If ThisWindow.Request = DeleteRecord
> ?DeleteButton{Prop:Text} = ....
>Really, really like it? Put it in your default registry.
or you can modify the templates:
Between lines 142 and 143 in abupdate.tpw:
If Self.Request = DeleteRecord !! AB 27-03-1999
?OK {Prop:Text} = 'Delete' !! AB 27-03-1999
End !! AB 27-03-1999
Then it should look like:
#AT(%WindowManagerMethodCodeSection,'Init','(),BYTE'),PRIORITY(8500)
#FOR(%Control)
#IF(UPPER(EXTRACT(%ControlStatement,'STD',1))='STD:HELP')
ToolBarForm.HelpButton=%Control
#BREAK
#ENDIF
#ENDFOR
If Self.Request = DeleteRecord !! AB 27-03-1999
?OK {Prop:Text} = 'Delete' !! AB 27-03-1999
End !! AB 27-03-1999
SELF.AddItem(ToolbarForm)
#ENDAT
Seems to work - use at own risk;)
Amended 27 March:
Personally I'd rather put it in an extension template. Something
like:
#TEMPLATE(ABCExtensions,'My ABC extion stuff'),FAMILY(ABC)
#EXTENSION(ABCSetDeleteButtonOnForms,'Replace text on Delete button')
#AT(%WindowManagerMethodCodeSection,'Init','(),BYTE'),PRIORITY(8500)
If Self.Request = DeleteRecord !! AB 27-03-1999
?OK {Prop:Text} = 'Delete' !! AB 27-03-1999
End !! AB 27-03-1999
#ENDAT
Then you don't have to remember to modify TS templates when they
release a new patch which updates the template chain.
Fernando Cerini adds:
> ?OK {Prop:Text} = 'Delete' !! AB 27-03-1999
Is better:
SELF.OkControl{Prop:Text} = 'Delete'
