Intercept the page of origin

sharon95

Hi all! My aim is to intercept the page of origin in which data will be collected in a table... not clear? I know! Example: I have the table MyTable with some code in one trigger, I want to execute the code only if it is accessed by the page FisrtPage (and not for the all other pages)... is it possible? and if it is, how? Thank you very much!

yes, you can write code in page 1 onvalidate trigger of field and no need to write in table. Did you try?

Firstpage is name of the page or page which executes above code first?

Firstpage is the page from which the code in the table is executed

why cant you simply create a function in table and call it from page field OnValidate trigger?

mmhh.. I don't have to execute the code into the table's OnValidate trigger only if it is accessed from a specific page..

I didn't get your point.

My table is accessed from many pages (page1, page2, page3, ....).
If I am in page1 I have to execute the table's Onvalidate trigger.
If I am in page2 I have to skip that trigger

Is it clearer?

Suppose you are inserting data from the Page One, then use like TableRec.Validate(field,NewValue) and if inserting from the other pages do not call the Validate, then it will simple do like field := NewValue.
OR you may try to write code in OnValidate() page trigger.

Hi,

table OnValidate trigger should be preferable used to ensure database integrity. If your code is to be run only in some cases, it should be separated by IF statement in table OnValidate trigger, or placed in separate function that can be called when needed without interference with validation code.
