ABC: Apply button for forms
1998-08-30 -- Jerry Norman
 
Newsgroups: comp.lang.clarion >I want to save the info on the form but keep the same record active. >I will then do some adding of child records and other stuff. Thus I >want a button to do this in addition to the OK button. Once the user >is finished they will then press the OK button and go back to the >browse but I need an APPLY button to save the record before leaving >the form. I'm jumping in here without seeing your initial post so this may be wide of the mark. I code an Apply button in my apps as a way to save the record and enable the child record tabs (i.e., the child tabs are disabled until the parent is saved). I am using C4 ABC. Here's the code in the Apply button's Accept embed: CASE Self.Request OF ChangeRecord Access:business.Update() OF InsertRecord IF NOT Access:Business.Insert() Self.Request = ChangeRecord DO EnableChildren ELSE CYCLE END END SELF.Saved = SELF.Primary.Me.SaveBuffer() ?btApply{Prop:Disable}=True I renable btApply button if a field value in the primary record is changed.
