Text box character length

arindam

Hi All,

I am facing a problem on Navision. The senario :

1. There is a table which have the feilds name, address1, address2.
2. There is a form with 3 text boxex txtName, txtAddress1, txtAddress2.
3. In my table length of address1 is 30 and length of address2 is 30.
4. My address1 text box's length is 40 (this is mandatory, i cant keep the length as 30).
5. Now in a button click I want Navision to display 30 words in address1 text box and remaining 10 (40-30) in address2 text box.

I use PADSTR function, but it is only giving me the first 30 character of address1 text box. I need to store remaining 10 characters from the address1 text box and send it to address2 text box.

Please advice. Thanks in advance.

Maybe something like this...

TxtToAdr1 := 30;  // Variable type Integer

IF STRLEN(address1) > TxtToAdr1 THEN BEGIN
  txtAddress1 := COPYSTR(address1,1,TxtToAdr1);
  txtAddress2 := COPYSTR(address1,TxtToAdr1 + 1,STRLEN(address1);
END;
