ABC: Return use variable for entry controls
1999-02-05 -- Jon Waterhouse
 
Newsgroups: comp.lang.clarion If you have the history enabled on the form this should be possible. Below is a window manager method I wrote to return the label of a the use variable of a given control. You should be able to modify this to do what you want (which is to return the field number of a given use label). My first attempt is given below. WindowManager.GetFieldLabel PROCEDURE(SIGNED Control) Left ANY CODE IF ~SELF.History &= NULL SELF.History.Control = Control GET(SELF.History,SELF.History.Control) IF ~ERRORCODE() return(SELF.Primary.Me.File{prop:label,SELF.History.FieldNo}) END END WindowManager.GetFieldByLabel PROCEDURE(STRING UseLabel) Left ANY CODE IF ~SELF.History &= NULL loop i# = 1 to records(self.history) get(self.history,i#) if SELF.Primary.Me.File{prop:label,SELF.History.FieldNo}=UseLabel return(SELF.History.Control) end END END
