ESC from subscreenHi folks,
I hope this is a simple question. From a main screen, I call a subscreen with a function key. The subscreen uses the same @RECORD data and works as I'm wanting. If I make a change and use the F2 to save those changes, the subscreen closes and the main screen now has the new data values. My problem comes in if I go to exit the subscreen with the escape key. I'm getting prompted with the "Save Changes?" (Cancel, No, Yes options) message, even if I go into the subscreen then immediately press ESC. On the function key call, I'm running a procedure that's doing one test then a direct execute of the subscreen so I don't THINK I'm changing any data but SB might be. Anyone have any suggestions? What am I doing wrong or where should I be looking? TIA, Bob W. _______________________________________________ SBSolutions mailing list SBSolutions@... http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/sbsolutions |

Re: ESC from subscreenYou can suppress the "save changes" prompt on the subscreen with either [S] or [MS] in the "process after escape" slot after the name of the process after escape (if any).
Put in an EXEC "DEBUG" before and after the subscreen call if you want to find out what's changed in the record. Also make sure the subscreen doesn't have the "write record" flag set to "Y" unless you are actually writing to file. -----Original Message----- From: sbsolutions-bounces@...

Re: ESC from subscreenYeah, I agree with Dave. Sounds like maybe the Write Record flag is set to
"Y" and maybe the Subscreen option isn't set on the /PD.I?

Re: ESC from subscreenNo on both. I agree that is what it sounds like so I've quadruple
checked, reentered, resaved them. The only way I can get out of the subscreen is by using the F2-save. I'm going to try making a new copy of the subscreen with only a couple of fields then see what happens. I'll send another shout if I can't get past this.

Re: ESC from subscreenI wondered about that same thing but I don't think so. I recreated the
subscreen putting just the data fields on there. Some of the fields I switched to non-entry so they are basically just displaying the contents of RECORD for them, then there is an associated MV group, which is the core reason for this screen, that are there for entry/update. I set the subscreen flag in the process definition and the WRITE RECORD flag to null. That's pretty much it but I still get the same results. The only way to exit the screen is with the F2-save. I don't see how but could something in the main screen cause this? Maybe I'm not saving off a system variable that I should be so it's doing something like comparing RECORD to ORIG.REC or something like that? Obviously, I'm grasping at straws... Thanks.

Re: ESC from subscreenBob,
Have you tried the SB+ Control Parameters. DMCONT SB.CONTROL <28,3> (SB+ Control Parameters) Set it to "N". The default is "Y". Might be the solution for you. Y causes Up Arrow/Back Tab to perform in reverse to Down Arrow/Tab - they will cycle backwards through all the input fields. Multi-value dependent fields will be skipped. The Esc key will cancel the current screen (return to the key field if one is present, or else exit the screen). N causes Up Arrow, Back Tab and Esc to function identically, - they will always return to the previous field input (not necessarily the previous input field on the screen).

Re: ESC from subscreenBTW -- we actually rename the "F2" key as "Accept" on SubScreens so users
realize their data is not 'saved' but that they are 'accepting' the changes as they go. Just our standard, but makes it easy to train!

Re: ESC from subscreenSUCCESS!!!
Thank you, Kevin!! We are on SB+ version 5.2.4 and this problem is apparently fixed in later versions. Kevin King figured out that because I included the records actual key field and just flagged it as non-input, the system was still doing some of the record read routines. By making a copy of the key field then changing it to a derived field, I could still get the key to display on my subscreen without the system doing any else. Now I can use the esc key and be able to do any processing I need in the Proc After Esc process. (On-top-of-dog-house-Snoopy-dance!) Thanks everyone else for your assistance and suggestions!

default windows pathHello folks,
I have this code: B:UT.COMDLG.S,1,, in a given intuitive help slot Field. Everything is good, when the user clicks on the "search magnifier icon" or press F3 key, windows explorer comes up and the user search for the required file (and windows path). However, it would be great and save a lot of time If I could do something to keep (as F3 default) the last directory the user selected for a given company, it means, I do not need to keep the last path the user browsed (that already occurs) I need to keep, as the F3 default, the last folder they browsed for a particular company. In this screen the user register some data for different companies, they capture in a field the scanned document's path and file name. They already have a different folder path for each company where they put those scanned documents (on a server where sb+/universe are running -thanks God-). That's the reason of my requirement. Any advise, idea or suggestion will be appreciated Sb+ 5.4 universe 10.3 winXP Regards JZam _______________________________________________ SBSolutions mailing list SBSolutions@... http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/sbsolutions |

Re: default windows pathHa! Love it!
Please log this as a request to Rocket -- it is EERILY similar to one I made already. I asked that I be able to 'feed it' the starting directory instead of it 'choosing one' for me. And as always -- the more that ask, the more likely it will get done!

Re: default windows pathHi Jorge,
I have a couple of suggestions. That subroutine executes the standard Windows Open File dialog, which is really just Windows Explorer. You could create "Favorites" entries to represent each of your companies' paths. The user would then only have to click on the appropriate Favorites entry and go from there. Or, replace UT.COMDLG.S with TU.FORM.OPENDOS which would allow you to pre-fill the path. Copied from the "SBClient Programmer's Guide": ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TU.FORM.OPENDOS(initialfilter, startpath, filetypes, returnpath, error) Displays a Windows "Open DOS File" dialog box. initialfilter [P] The starting filter for the dialog window. This can be any DOS filter (for example, *.BMP,NEWFILE.DOC,*.*). startpath [P] The initial DOS path for the dialog window. If null, the dialog will use either the current directory, or, if the dialog has previously been invoked, the last path used by the dialog. filetypes [P] An SM delimited list of file types to be shown in the Types combo box. The format is: description:SM:filter:SM:description:SM:filter . For example, "Bitmaps":SM:"*.BMP":SM:"All Files":SM:"*.*" returnpath [R] The selected DOS file. This will be null if no file was selected. error [R] Indicates the success (zero) or failure (non-zero) of the subroutine. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It looks like the "startpath" parameter allows you to pre-set the path for the dialog. The "returnpath" variable then contains the entire drive and path that the user selects. ________________________________ Pat O'Neal Sr Programmer/Analyst Phone: 626-960-6762 x439 Fax: 626-338-1630 Email: poneal@... www.westinautomotive.com -----Original Message----- From: Jorge Zamora [mailto:jzamora@...] Sent: Wednesday, February 08, 2012 12:43 PM To: 'SB Solutions' Subject: [SBS] default windows path Hello folks, I have this code: B:UT.COMDLG.S,1,, in a given intuitive help slot Field.

Re: default windows pathThat is EXACTLY what I was looking for as well when we 'found' the
UT.COMDLG.S -- no one in support mentioned OPENDOS! I wonder why this is not an example in SBDEMO? Perhaps it could be added? I know that we just 'tripped over' the UT.COMDLG.S as it *WAS* used to do the 'file pick' function in SBDEMO. Probably the same way others found it!
