disable and enable dropdown using value from header form

Rathi

Hi anyone knows, how to pass boolean data to subform data (item type) and make it editable or non-editable?

or any page using this concept so that i can refer..

Thanks

you need to write code in Onvalidate trigger of Item type. and get the header record using GET function..

Kishorm

In the OnValidate of the "Able to Quote" field you need to do a

MODIFY(TRUE);

or

CurrPage.UPDATE(TRUE);

before you call the function in the subpage

or you can check in validate trigger of field "Item Type" whether header field is true or not.
you can show error if requirement is not met..

Try something like this...

1) Create a Boolean in the subpage and set IncludeInDataset property to yes
2) assign the Boolean variable to the Editable property of the "Item Type" field
3) Create a global function in the subpage to allow you to set the Boolean variable to true or false
4) Call the subpage function (CurrPage.lines.SetMyBoolean(...)) from the main page on the OnValidate of the field in the header and also in the OnAfterGetCurrentRecord trigger

@mohana_cse06 thanks, Yes i trigger the code at onvalidate field.

Can anyone help me why my codes always return message for first condition only even though there are 2 scenarios tested?

Returning --> MESSAGE(Text001)


CASE GPOTender."Able to Quote" OF
GPOTender."Able to Quote"::"1":
BEGIN
MESSAGE(Text001);
END;
GPOTender."Able to Quote"::"0":
BEGIN
MESSAGE(Text000);
DisableLines;
END;
END;

Rathi
