Page field show/hide code

slingenfelter

Is it possible to make a Boolean page field visible only if it is True/Yes?

Explanation:
Salesperson/Purchaser table has a field "Inactive". I have a added a Lookup field on the sales line for the Salesperson/Purchaser "Inactive" field. I want the field to show Yes if it is checked but I want it to appear blank if it is not.

Is this possible? :-k

MBerger

why not fill a text variable according with "yes" or "", and show that on the page ?

JohnHunter

on page for your field set BlankZero to Yes

Thanks for the replies! I do have the BlankZero set as Yes and the field still shows as No. But thanks for the suggestion!

On the text variable will you please elaborate?

I think MBerger referred to some code like this:

IF Inactive THEN
  InactiveText := FORMAT(TRUE)
ELSE
  InactiveText := "";

Hello,

You can set a Boolean var in the Visiblility (or Enable) property of your field.
Then you can set this var on TRUE or FALSE on trigger "OnModify".
Like:

IF "Salesperson/Purchaser"."Inactive" THEN BEGIN
isVisible := TRUE;
CurrPage.UPDATE;
END ELSE BEGIN
isVisible := FALSE;
CurrPage.UPDATE;
END;

But be careful with the CurrPage.UPDATE to save your values, ...
