Customize prompt lookup behavior in a dbgrid
From DataFlex Wiki
How can I set a column in a dbGrid to ignore the prompt under certain circumstances?
1. Via customizing the prompt method in the object
Procedure Prompt Integer iColumn Boolean bOk move (true) to bOk Get Current_Col To iColumn If (iColumn=4) Begin // if in column 4 then check data Get Field_Current_Value Of Server_DD Field Foo.bar To sBar If (sBar="foo") Move (false) To bOk End If (bOk) Begin Forward Send Prompt End Procedure // Prompt
2. Via entry_display
if(certain circumstances) begin Set Prompt_Button_Mode to pb_PromptOff end and On_Key kPrompt Send myprompt Procedure Myprompt if(not((certain circumstances)) forward send prompt End_Procedure
