Get\Action .. disable the field only

[Rick Lipkin]

To All

I have a Get\action statement that I add a bitmap to that allows me to click on the bitmap ( button magnifying glass ) within the field to fire off the code below. Everything works great but is there a way to disable the field so no one can enter in any data .. I just want the field to be read only .. be able to click the ( active ) button to run my Action routine and fill in the value back into the disabled field ..



In the image above, I want to disable that field but still be able to click the button than send a value back to the disabled field and refresh the results.

Code: Select all

REDEFINE GET oBreakC   VAR nBreakC         ID 133 of oGRPS PICTURE "999.99" BITMAP "find";
      ACTION ( _RateSlct( cMode,oFontB,"BUTTON",cInstate,cOutState,1,;
                          @nBreakC,oBreakC,@nLunchC,oLunchC,@nDinnerC,oDinnerC,@nMRate,oMRate),;
                         _Exp(  @nBreak,  @nBreakC,  @nBreakT,oBreakT, ;
                         @nLunch,  @nLunchC,  @nLunchT,  oLunchT, ;
                         @nDinner, @nDinnerC, @nDinnerT, oDinnerT, ;
                         @nTmeals, oTmeals,   @nTotalExp,oTotalExp,;
                         @nTHotel, @nTMileage,@nTRegist, @nTAirFare,;
                         @nTMisc,  @nNights,  @nHcost,   oTHotel,;
                         @nMiles,  @nMrate, oTmileage,;
                         oLunch:SetFocus(),oLunch:oJump := oLunch ) ) UPDATE
       oBreakC:lAdjustBtn := .t.

Maybe you can set its lenght to 0?

[Natter]

oGet:bGotFocus:={||oGet:aControls[1]:SetFocus()}

Make the Get READONLY.
In that case, the user can not enter any text in the Get, but can click the button.

Gentleman

I found the answer ... and yes Rao .. you were correct !!!!!

Code: Select all

REDEFINE GET oBreakC   VAR nBreakC         ID 133 of oGRPS PICTURE "999.99" BITMAP "find";
      ACTION ( _RateSlct( cMode,oFontB,"BUTTON",cInstate,cOutState,1,;
                          @nBreakC,oBreakC,@nLunchC,oLunchC,@nDinnerC,oDinnerC,@nMRate,oMRate),;
                         _Exp(  @nBreak,  @nBreakC,  @nBreakT,oBreakT, ;
                         @nLunch,  @nLunchC,  @nLunchT,  oLunchT, ;
                         @nDinner, @nDinnerC, @nDinnerT, oDinnerT, ;
                         @nTmeals, oTmeals,   @nTotalExp,oTotalExp,;
                         @nTHotel, @nTMileage,@nTRegist, @nTAirFare,;
                         @nTMisc,  @nNights,  @nHcost,   oTHotel,;
                         @nMiles,  @nMrate, oTmileage,;
                         oLunch:SetFocus(),oLunch:oJump := oLunch ) ) COLOR CLR_BLACK, 16053492 READONLY
 

Adding the Readonly clause will disable the field and the button still works and returns the correct value to the readonly field
