Empty subform remains disabled

amer

I was trying to implement "edit" mode for Card-Type forms to prevent accidental modifications (using checkbox or button to switch Form.EDITABLE property).
If a subform exists, e.g. "Fixed Asset Card" Form with DepreciationBook subform, there is a problem.
If you place a button with following code, subform (if empty) remains disabled forever.

 CurrForm.EDITABLE :=NOT CurrForm.EDITABLE;

(NAV 4.0 SP3)

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

it's the way it is...
add this after your code

IF table ISEMPTY then
  currform.editable := true;

p.s.: there are many better designs than this...but i should write more code...
btw, the concept is this one

Hello,
I tried to add suggested code to a subform (problem is when subform record is empty) but it does not help because it seems problem is with "enabled" (set by NAV at run-time) not "editable".

Hi Amer,
I tested for Fixed Asset Card

CurrForm.EDITABLE :=NOT CurrForm.EDITABLE;

in 4.0 SP3, and it works fine for me i.e. subform (if empty) doesn't remain disabled forever. Can you please check it in the fresh Cronus DB and confirm....??

is your form in lookup mode ?

Sorry, there is additional line to add to generate the problem:

Form - OnOpenForm()
CurrForm.EDITABLE:=FALSE;

Forms are not in Lookup mode, no other modifications at all.
