Xplore now supports Edit-in-Place. The edit-in-place functionality is still executed by the standard EditClass code, so, for developers who are overriding that, it should still work. Xplore merely looks after the shifting of the columns.

 

NOTE: In order for EIP to work with Xplore in C4, you must CHECK ON the Edit in Place dialog in the Xplore Global template and then make one small change to the Browse Class in ABBROWSE.INC

 

The following line at roughly 231

               Fields &FieldPairsClass,PRIVATE

should be changed to

               Fields &FieldPairsClass,PROTECTED

 

This is your choice! I would rather not have to make any changes to the base class, but it was the only way to accomplish EIP. Incidentally, this change to the base class is not required in C5.

 

Xplore will now output an ASCII comma separated value file (default = Xport.CSV) and it will optionally launch the application (like Excel) associated with the file type.

 

Xplore will now output an HTML file (default = Xport.HTM) and it will optionally launch the application (like MSIE or Netscape) associated with the file type.

 

Xplore now gives you the option of setting the UPPER function (or not) on the sort order fields. The default is set to True (ie use UPPER) in the Xplore Global Extension template. If you need to alter the Xplore Property (UPPER) then it should be changed at runtime in ThisWindow.SetAlerts with a PRIORITY >1000 and <8000.
