Getting problem while comparing filter value -- HELP !!!!

jyotsnas

Hi All,

i am developing an utility that takes budget filter as one of the inputs. Its not mandatory for user to enter it. Thats why i want to take out minimum and maximum of the range entered only if Budget Filter is not empty. For this I have written this code

Budget Filter is a table filter

if "Budget Filter" <> '' then begin
StartBudget := GETRANGEMIN( "Budget Filter" );
EndBudget := GETRANGEMIN( "Budget Filter" );
end;

But if if i enter something for the Budget Filter, its comparing it with blank and skipping the code written inside the if statement.

F1 F1 F1 (Help me Please) .... waiting for replies :roll:

Did you copy the Budgetfilter into a variable first

ex.

Variabel: GlBudgetFilter Text 80

GLBudgetFilter := "G/L Account".GETFILTER("Budget Filter");

IF GlBudgetFilter <> '' THEN BEGIN
Startbudget := GETRANGEMIN(GlBudgetFilter);
Endbudget := GETRANGEMAX(GlBudgetFilter);
END;

Thanks for your reply ....

But for the code that is given i am getting an error for GLBudgetFilter is not part of the table. Its an external variable. And GETRANGEMIN and GETRANGEMAX are functions related to record variables.

Anyways, i tried it using one variable

BudgetFilter text 80

// consider "Budget Filter" of Rec
BudgetFilter := GetFilter( "Budget Filter" );

if BudgetFilter <> '' then begin
StartBudget := GETRANGEMIN( "Budget Filter" );
EndBudget := GETRANGEMAX( "Budget Filter" );
end;

still not working....... Please reply back
