Is there a way to hide field on the fly? Dataport

fmhigue

I got a Dataport with a requested form, I want to hide fields on the Requested form based on a previous selection.

Customer Type: Customer or Chain or Promo
If I choose Customer I want to hide Chain and Promo fields.

Any ideas?

I tried using VISIBLE but it does not works.

Is this an option field?

Here's a rough thought..

CASE "Customer Type" OF "Customer Type"::Customer :
Begin
 CurrForm.ChainFieldNAME.VISIBLE(FALSE);
 CurrForm.PromoFieldNAME.VISIBLE(FALSE);
end;

CASE "Customer Type" OF "Customer Type"::Chain :
Begin
 CurrForm.CustomerFieldNAME.VISIBLE(FALSE);
 CurrForm.PromoFieldNAME.VISIBLE(FALSE);
End;

CASE "Customer Type" OF "Customer Type"::Promo :
Begin
 CurrForm.ChainFieldNAME.VISIBLE(FALSE);
 CurrForm.CustomerFieldNAME.VISIBLE(FALSE);
end;

I never tried it on a request form.. :-k

Hi,

It works fine on a request form even in a dataport. Don't forget to make the other controls visible if selected
