Incremental Search in TwBrowse (Standard)

[Milan Mehta]

Hi,

How to pvovide incremental search in TwBrowse. Someone must have done it. I tried to achieve same using DBCOMBO box. But it seems to be not working properly.

Any sample / guidance will be highly appreciated.

Milan.

Hello all,

With kind help of James Bott I could adapt one of his function to achive the same. Here it is if it helps anybody. One will need to change the name of database and actiive tag.

I have one question also. Pressing space bar will clear the search. But I am not able to achieve the same with other key like Del or so. Can anybody shed light on it.

Thanks James. My private mail to you bounces back. So I do it here.

Wiith best regards,

Milan.

RETURN NIL

FUNCTION FindTwIncr(oBrw,nKey)

oBrw:Cargo += upper( CHR(nKey) )

Set ORDER TO TAG Name
DBSeek (oBrw:Cargo, .T.)
Set ORDER TO nOrder

oBrw:nLen := OrdKeyCount()
oBrw:VSetPos( OrdKeyNo() )
oBrw:Refresh()
ELSE
oBrw:Cargo := ""

Just change this line:

IF nKey <> 32

To:

IF nKey != 32 .and. nKey != VK_DELETE

And add this include:

#include "vkey.ch"

James
