Prompter Field Data Transfer

[JarOfJam]

I have created a prompter form and attached said prompter to the associated field, I wish to transfer a piece of data to the prompter form from my main program to my reusable, which I can then pass onto my form, which I can then pass to my function that provides my filtering options for said list, I would prefer to avoid creating a new global variable, although I do know it could be done this way

Instead of creating the prompter within the field itself you can turn the prompter option on after you have placed that field onto a screen.

Code: Select all

Define_Com Class(#GOPMPTNO.Visual) Parent(#BODY_HEAD) Displayposition(5) Tabposition(5) Left(4) Top(104) Width(463) Showprompter(True) Readonly(True)

Then use the prompterActivate Event to load your Prompter form and pass the data you need into it to filter your data for the prompter.

Code: Select all

Evtroutine Handling(#GOPMPTNO.PrompterActivate) Options(*NOCLEARMESSAGES *NOCLEARERRORS)
If_Ref Com(#GOPM_D10) Is(*NULL)
Set_Ref Com(#GOPM_D10) To(*CREATE_AS #GOPM_D10)
Endif

#GOPM_D10.uLoadMe Migopmid(#GOPMID)
Endroutine

Thank you for your reply, what does your form look like that receives that information?

Probably like this:

mthRoutine uLoadMe
define_map for(*input) class(GOPMID) name(#Migopmid)

* use #Migopmid

endRoutine
