Cursor position

alex9 · 2006-11-09

I have a textbox on a form which has some text variable as it’s SourceExpr and I want that variable to contain filter string for some table field. Textbox has LookUp button and a trigger and ClearOnLookup=No

Is it possible to imitate in the OnLookup trigger code generic Navision behavior when it inserts selected value into CURRENT CURSOR POSITION of a textbox?

What seems to be a problem is that C/SIDE does not provide a way of knowing where cursor was prior to launching Lookup form. Above mentioned generic behavior can be observed for example in table filters.

The key is set the table relation on the text box. Then you don't need to put any code on the lookup trigger. Here is an example

OBJECT Form 50080 test lookup with text
{
  OBJECT-PROPERTIES
  {
    Date=11/09/06;
    Time=[ 7:44:09 PM];
    Modified=Yes;
    Version List=;
  }
  PROPERTIES
  {
    Width=8000;
    Height=8000;
  }
  CONTROLS
  {
    { 1000000000;TextBox;1980 ;1430 ;2750 ;440  ;ClearOnLookup=No;
                                                 SourceExpr=MyItem;
                                                 TableRelation=Item }
  }
  CODE
  {
    VAR
      MyItem@1000000000 : Text[250];

    BEGIN
    END.
  }
}
