How to use hiHighlightField() to highlight a particular field if the input is incorrect

Manikk0501

Hi all,

                 I want to hightlight a particular field in a GUI with multiple tabs if the user input is incorrect(Let say it is a file input and the file name which user mentioned is not existing).

                 I added a ?modifyCallback function which has hiHighlightField() function. 

                 Command line is like this

                 hiHighlightField( Form->TabField->TabName 'Field 2 )

                 As per the intention, Field is hightlighted if the input is wrong, but i am getting an error in CIW as follows

                                     *Error* eval: not a function - 'Field

                                     *Error* car: Can't take car of atom - ERROR

                Can anyone let me know what I am missing here

Thanks and Regards,

Manikandan Kuzandhaivelu

    Manikandan,

    The post to which you replied is a thinly disguised spam post (they've clearly just taken some text from elsewhere and posted them onto some other vaguely relevant thread, with a link to promote sales of a product). So these posts are being deleted...


    Andrew.
