Bonus TIPS for Successful Posting

Try a Search First
It is highly recommended that a Search be done on your topic before posting, as many questions have been answered in prior posts. As with any search engine, the shorter the search term, the more "hits" will be returned, but the more specific the search term is, the greater the relevance of those "hits". Searching for "table" might well return every message on the board while "tablesum" would greatly restrict the number of messages returned.

When you do post
First, make sure you are posting your question in the correct forum. For example, if you post an issue regarding Desktop applications on the Mobile & Browser Applications board , not only will your question not be seen by the appropriate audience, it may also be removed or relocated.

The more detail you provide about your problem or question, the more likely someone is to understand your request and be able to help. A sample database with a minimum of records (and its support files, zipped together) will make it much easier to diagnose issues with your application. Screen shots of error messages are especially helpful.

When explaining how to reproduce your problem, please be as detailed as possible. Describe every step, click-by-click and keypress-by-keypress. Otherwise when others try to duplicate your problem, they may do something slightly different and end up with different results.

A note about attachments
You may only attach one file to each message. Attachment file size is limited to 2MB. If you need to include several files, you may do so by zipping them into a single archive.

If you forgot to attach your files to your post, please do NOT create a new thread. Instead, reply to your original message and attach the file there.

When attaching screen shots, it is best to attach an image file (.BMP, .JPG, .GIF, .PNG, etc.) or a zip file of several images, as opposed to a Word document containing the screen shots. Because Word documents are prone to viruses, many message board users will not open your Word file, therefore limiting their ability to help you.

Similarly, if you are uploading a zipped archive, you should simply create a .ZIP file and not a self-extracting .EXE as many users will not run your EXE file.

    Hi All,

    Below is a script that has been generated by converting a browse to xdialog with an embedded browse.

    Can anybody tell me how I can get the value of a selected row object ie the SMB_REF

    browseObj1.SMB_REF.value

    You can use browseObj1 as the top object pointer in the same way you would use topparent for the regular browse.

    Notice how browseObj1 is used in the code for the navigation buttons ie browseObj1.Fetch_First()

        No problems.

        I have put them (browses in xDialogs) to use recently so knew right away what you were asking. I put two browses in one dialog as a lookup/find tool. It works like a progressive find against two different sets of tables at the same time. I really like the way you get the full functionality of all the new browse gadgets like buttons and bubble help etc not to mention the regular color equation. And also the ability to style the browse with a style sheet used throughout the app. then just plunck it in to the xdialog.

          Re: XML

          I had not played with this feature before, so this thread was a nice prompt to do so.

          One question. It looks like the browse can not be resized smaller than the card dimensions. Would be nice if the card deminisons were the initial size, but the user could resize larger (can do) or smaller (can't).

              your post intrigued me so I have been looking at how I would put the two browses in to one xdialog, but I have not managed to do it correctly, I wonder if you would so kind as to post an example of how this is accomplished

                Sure thing.

                This was one of my early attempts. It is just two of the alphasports browses from the browse tab. I also included the new header section for each browse.

                Save the file and then import into the code tab of Alphasports.

                  Hi Tim

                  Sorry I am back again,

                  I have the two browses in the same xdialog, as the are working fine.

                  I have put a watch expression in my form to allow the user to select a supplier

                  {watch=pruchhead1.SUPPLIER.value!name_change}
                  I also have a variable VOrdernum

                  The top browse is the supplier
                  The second browse is the order items

                  I want to be able to sort the second browse by the variable Vordernum

                  I have also put a watch expression in for the Vordernum

                  {watch=Vordernum!name_change}
                  I have found the line in the XML that filters the browse which works if I set the value to
                  Order_no = &quot;02944&quot;
                  Can you give me some idea how to do this dynamically

                    Re: XML

                    Hi Andy, no aplologies neccessary.

                    I am not clear on whether you want to filter or sort or both the second browse. Also, what is the relation ship of the vOrdernum variable to the xdialog. Is it on the dialog or on the form that calls the cdialog?

                    The method I am using is that of using the browse object name (in your case 'pruchhead1') like you would topparent in the browse. Then I have a variable on the xdialog that supplies the change event(rather than a watch expression).
                    In response to this event I have a line of code similar to this.
                    Code:
                    pruchhead2.QuickSortExplicit("Order_no")
                    and if you want to filter the browse use the queryrun function like
                    Code:
                    filter = "Ordernum = ' " + vOrdernum + " ' "
                    pruchhead2.queryrun(filter)
                    Another way would be to insert a place holder (say __BROWSE_FILTER__ )in the xml in place of the filter and order and then construct the text that would go in its place with the usual character functions and variable substitution. Like

                    __BROWSE_FILTER__ = "Order_no = &quot;"+Vordernum+"&quot;"


                    Then use strtran() to replace the place holder. Then you would need to redo the xml on each change event with a line similar to

                    Code:
                    browseObj1 = a5_XdialogDefaultBrowse(dlg_title,"Browsecard_browseObj1",browseObj1_tablename,"browseObj1_browse_definition")
                    This would have the affect of rebuilding the browse each time.

                    Hope this helps.

                      Hi Tim,

                      How do I make the filtered XML-Browse List before open an xdialog? -
                      or Could you tell me which code is generate the lists?
                      or Hide the XML-Browse Data until change a variable value?

                        or Could you tell me which code is generate the lists?

                        http://wiki.alphasoftware.com/New+In+Xdialog+V9

                        Under the section heading Embedded Browse on Xdialogs

                        Having edited the appearance to your tastes in the Browse editor, you can then get the XML for the browse by selecting Browse, Advanced, Show XML Definition from the Browse Editor menus.

                        You should also be able to use
                        table.xml_export() and get_from_file()

                          Hi Stan,
                          Interesting use of functions for getting the xml. I assume the UDF to call the browse would generate the xml with the first function to get a current record list and then use the 2nd function here:

                          browseObj1_browse_definition = get_from_file(myxmlfile)

                          Is that right?

                          Geez, this thread is 6 yrs old and I'm still learning how do this stuff!

                            That's what I was envisioning, haven't tried it.

                              What you need to know is described in previous posts here.
                              I tried many ways and eventually what I ended with working I looked at the posts here was exactly as described by Tim and Andy in the final post of his.
                              Follow the attached screenshots - first shows the piece of code that does it and the others demonstrate this in operation.
                              It really is fully dynamic as you wanted.
                              My own example is an intrinsic function that will confuse you no end.
