Passing a filter to a dataport

mlstephens

Hi All.

On a dataport is it possible to prepopualte data into the reqfilterfields?

I can not do a simple setfilter on the predata item as the filter could change but will normally be the pre-defined text string but the user needs the ability to change it.

My question is how do i get this string to be populated on the required pre defined field programatically?

Standard way, like when You start some report. But you need to start this indirect by some other object.

FirstDataItemRec.SETFILTER(Somethnig)
DATAPORT.RUN(5000,TRUE,FirstDataItemRec)
