That was Jon Koh, posted his use of the code - nor sharing anything. Don't know what you call that ....so not hijacking, maybe bragging ?

Or an evolving piece of software.

Oh yeah, I guess you didn't. I guess I got mixed up.

Re: Useful Example Using XDialog

I didn't post a screenshot, and all I did was add some buttons and make it sizeable. If you want to move my posts, that's fine but the initial credit belongs to Chris.

Re: Useful Example Using XDialog

Judging by your screen shot you built a completely different product, which is great. But I think it should go in its own thread.

Re: Useful Example Using XDialog

But Peter, you were the first to make changes...

I think this thread has been hijacked.

Re: Useful Example Using XDialog

I'm working on adding a tabbed object so you can see the sets too.

I put my shared scripts into an aex file and copy that to the addins_installed folder. The original functions in the library file can still be edited and then recompiled.

Ron,
I have an separate app I call shared_scripts and I place all my mainstay scripts that I use always, and then it's a simple matter of adding the library of that shared scripts to your current app.

Re: Useful Example Using XDialog

Is it possible to store this function in one place so that it's accessible to all work spaces or does the function need to be added to the code tab for each work space?

Thank you for sharing. Robin,

I can make a better on my IDE xdialog with your codes.

Re: Useful Example Using XDialog

I made some modifications to the original function like adding a few buttons and made the xd sizeable so you could see the calc field rule definitions. Now besides viewing the default browse, you can check the indexes, update them, edit the field rules, pack the table if deleted records are found and even edit the table structure. Also you can save the info to a temp file, preview it and then optionally print it.

I gave the function a new name so you can import and test it.

Re: Useful Example Using XDialog

I think for developers this is a very sweet function. I added {position=remember} to the body code to get it to open where i want it placed and this is for me now open at all time when I'm developing. Thank guys for this!

Re: Useful Example Using XDialog

Chris, latest additions really great. But scared me the number of tables that are opened by my main menu which has lots of dockpanels with data driven menus and other information in them. Time for a re-think, I think too much over-head there.
