Par2: Dynamically Select-ing a different field at window open 1999-01-26 -- Dennis Evans >In ThisWindow.Init, priority 9999, I have:
> If ThisWindow.Request = Insertrecord
> If LOC:pCode
> CTJ:pCode = LOC:pCode
> CTJ:Volume = LOC:Volume
> CTJ:Issue = LOC:Issue
> CTJ:Date = LOC:Date

>The priming works correctly. However, the Select(? ) does not.
The FirstField property is set in the init method.
The TakeWindowEvent method then selects the FirstField, on a WindowOpen event.
The TakeWindowEvent method is called after the init method is completed, from the
TakeEvent method.
Place the select statement in the TakeWindowEvent method Event:Open, after the
parent call.
[shp] Note: The field priming must remain in the After Opeing Window embed (or towards
the end of ThisWindow.INIT). The Select() must be moved as Dennis points out.
Dennis adds:
You can also change the value of the FirstField property.
In the ThisWindow.Init method, after the template sets the value,
embed this Self.FirstField = ?ControlName.
Then after the parent call to TakeWindowEvent,
OpenWindow, reset the property, if needed.
Self.FirstField = ?NewControl.
