how to assign formField as a vairable?

bonnieatcds

Hello,

Here is what I want to do --

In my "hiCreateAppForm", I defined as following:

myMainForm->matchBusReportField1->choices = abcGlobal->resultList1

myMainForm->matchBusReportField2->choices = abcGlobal->resultList2

...

myMainForm->matchBusReportField8->choices = abcGlobal->resultList8

n=0

foreach(o busNList

n=n+1

stringToSymbol(strcat("abcGlobal->resultList" sprintf(nil "%L" n)))=subProgram(o)

stringToSymbol(strcat("myMainForm->matchBusReportField" sprintf(nil "%L" n) "->choices"))=stringToSymbol(strcat("abcGlobal->resultList" sprintf(nil "%L" n)))

)

I failed. The above approach is not correct, then how do I do it? The length of "busNList" is a varable.

Please help!

Thanks,

Bonnie

  • Bonnie,

    The two assignments in the loop should be something like this:

    result=subProgram(o)
    putprop(abcGlobal result concat('resultList n))
    get(myMainForm concat('matchBusReportField n))->choices=result

    Note that I could have avoided storing the intermediate result in a variable (result) but it actually makes the code a bit simpler because otherwise you ended up looking it back up from the abcGlobal again.

    Note the above is completely untested, but I think it should work OK.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
