Because of space constraints i’ve created a small form to be used on the tabs. When the user needs to edit this data i want to show the full form.
So to show the project info on tabs i’ve created a project_small form, but when the user clicks the edit button (or add button) i want the data to be shown in the (full) project form (no edit on tab).
How can i accomplish this?
You have to link both forms to the same table and foundset.
Like that anything done on one form will automatically change the other one.
the forms both reference the same table.
Could u give me a small example how to do this in the navigation framework?
In the properties of both forms you should have the property “namedFoundSet” set to “DEFAULT” which means that it uses the common foundset for the table.
both forms have that property set.
What i dont know is what i need to change in the navigation framework to show the second form when the user presses the edit button.
I have the following forms:
project_small_dtl (inherits from project_small) and linked to the project table. This form is shown in a tab.
project_dtl (inherits from project) and also linked to the project table. This form must be used in edit mode.
