Par2: Combining field numbers in code
1998-08-07 -- Douglas Johnson
 
I recently downloaded some code which contained MANY LONG statements like the following: CASE ACCEPTED() OF ?Field1 MyString = ?Field1{PROP:Text} OF ?Field2 MyString = ?Field2{PROP:Text} OF ?Field3 MyString = ?Field2{PROP:Text} OF ... END After sorting through all of this, it seemed it might be helpful to offer the following tip as a short alternative: CASE ACCEPTED() OF ?Field1 TO ?FieldX MyString = ACCEPTED(){PROP:Text} END In other words, functions returning a field number can be combined with a field specific property statement.
