Par2: Locate on non-indexed field 2001-08-23 -- Dennis Evans Add the locator normally, use a local field for the entry control, use the override default control to set the control to the local variable, in the ThisWindow.Init method after the locator init call LocatorName.Destruct() LocatorName.FreeElement &= Field from the column in the GetFreeElementPosition method, after the parent call ReturnValue += 1 If you have more than one sort order on the browse then you will need to make sure the code in the GetFreeElementPosition is used on the correct sort. ----- You will have to use the embed editor not the embed tree. In the ThisWIndow.Init method a little better than half way down you will see code something like, Brw1.Init(... Brw1.AddSortOrder(... Brow1.AddLocator(...

With more that one sort order you will need to adjust to the correct sort, the first sort order/tab displayed is the last one added. The second sort order/tab is the first. Brw1.SetSort(x) x = 1 or 2 LocatorName.Destruc() LocatorName.FreeElement &= xyz Brw1.SetSort(2) Assumes two sort orders, note if you are doing this on the first sort order since it is the last one added it will be the active one so the SetSort calls are not required. > ---How do I do this.
