Markedonly records and Filtergroup

smkolsoft

Dear All

I am displaying some markedonly records in a Form.
I want to prevent user from clicking the ShowALL buton.
Strangely i found that Filtergroup is not working for Markedonly records.

Pls advce me how to tackle this problem.

Thanks

kriki

If you only need to show some records without that the user needs to change them, I would throw those records in a temptable and run the form with the temptable:
Some example (recTheTable is a record on the real table ; tmpTheTable is a temptable):

recTheTable.FINDSET;
REPEAT
  IF Show the record THEN BEGIn
    tmpTheTable := recTheTable;
    tmpTheTable.INSERT(FALSE);
  END;
UNTIL recTheTable.NEXT = 0;

FORM.RUNMODAL(0,tmpTheTable);

Thanks kriki for your reply.
But as you have already said that this is for viewing only.....
We actually want user to edit the records also.

Is there any solution for it ?


Thanks

after filling the temporary form (kriki method), the user can modify the records (which are temporary).
You can create a function to flush your modified temptable to the real table. You can achieve this calling the function in the oncloseform (and/or under a button).
the only thing you have to do is to deny the permission to insert records to the user (or modify only the records that actually exists in the db, ignoring the others)

This is the correct way. It takes some more programming, but if they may not see other records. Or you have to find a filter that can be used.

I try this code but it doesn't work. First findset doesn't exists in records and if a comment that, the system displays an error that the first variable current exists

Belias

are there records in recTheTable table?
P.S.: recTheTable MUST NOT be temporary

helm

If FINDSET doesn't exist it's because your version of Navision is to old. Use FIND('-') instead

eheh...i didn't thought that way...he said he doesn't have records :-k

Yes, it is a record over item table. I don't know how to create a temporary record.

KTA8

Now with FIND I can compile but the error continues, how can I create the temporary?

Belias

global variables, focus your record variable, view, properties, temporary = yes

P.S.: you should study before programming...(assuming that you're doing this for a customer and not for personal training)

Until today I don't need to use this type of variable and if markonly doesn't have this problem I will continue.

And runmodal too, I have a question about it, I guess that 0 means that the system opens the default form for the record, in my case Item. But I need to open other and I change the number to the ID form but the system creates another object continuously. I don't know where to place the code to avoid that.

P.S.: It's for a customer. I didn't make an official Navision course, I don't need it for my job and I don't have time to do it. When I had a little time I try to learn something but nowadays the courses are e-learning mode. In that type of course I need a lot of time to learn something. I'm assuming that you're talking about specific Navision programming not general programming.

Belias

yes, i mean Navision programming for sure...but take it easy...i only suggested you to study nav programming in order to avoid errors...for example if you forgot a "temporary" property you can do a really big damage...inserting real records and so on...anyway, back to topic:
what do you mean with

but the system creates another object continuously

?

KTA8

When i call runmodal the system inits another object and despite of that the system does again my code and calls again another object.

It's like this: run object -> run code (runmodal) -> run new object (like first one) -> run code -> (again and again)...
It's happens when I use runmodal with the ID of my form not with 0. With 0 works fine but opens form 31 not my form

Belias

let's say your form is no. 55555: do you do this in the onopenform of the form 55555?

recTheTable.FINDSET;
REPEAT
  IF Show the record THEN BEGIn
    tmpTheTable := recTheTable;
    tmpTheTable.INSERT(FALSE);
  END;
UNTIL recTheTable.NEXT = 0;

FORM.RUNMODAL(55555,tmpTheTable);

then, it's straightforward that your form will be called over and over...open -> runcode, rumodal -> open -> runcode.....

the code written by kriki is supposed to NOT be used in the onopenform, but for example in a codeunit.
In order to run this code in the onopenform you must be in version 5.00 (or 5.01, i don't remember), you'll find the property sourcetabletemporary for the form.
Search mibuso for "sourcetabletemporary", you should find threads about how to use it...

*EDIT: #-o you don't have FINDSET, you can't be in 5.0

KTA8

I read the problem was in a form, I always thinking in that way.

Yes, I'm working with a 4 version, can't I use sourcetabletemporary?

Nop, doesn't exist yet. Exists from 5.0.

KTA8

Can I use another solution?

Belias

I already wrote it before! Use the same code, but run it from somewhere else: a codeunit for example

The prevent your user to show all the records you can also put the filter back on in the OnAfterGetRecord trigger.

Form - OnAfterGetRecord()
MARKEDONLY(TRUE);

I don't think so my customer likes using two objects for the same purpose but it is a solution

I like it, easier and elegant

and self-killing if you are on SQL

reijermolenaar

I agree, it is much better to write some code in the OnFindRecord and OnNextRecord trigger.

Form - OnFindRecord(Which : Text[1024]) : Boolean
tmpTheTable := Rec;
tmpTheTable.SETVIEW(GETVIEW);
IF tmpTheTable.FIND(Which) THEN BEGIN
  Rec := tmpTheTable;
  EXIT(TRUE);
END;

Form - OnNextRecord(Steps : Integer) : Integer
tmpTheTable := Rec;
tmpTheTable.SETVIEW(GETVIEW);
CurrentSteps := tmpTheTable.NEXT(Steps);
IF CurrentSteps <> 0 THEN BEGIN
  Rec := tmpTheTable;
  EXIT(CurrentSteps);
END;

Just put markedonly (true) in the onaftergetcurrentrecord
