How to make field editable based on condition

ReportReport
Posted on by BASMA 920

i have a form with a grid. when the grid is populating its data, i want to change yes/no enum field to yes. when I change this field another field became editable. Example, If FieldA == Yes then FieldB.allowedit(true). 
i put the code into the datasource's active method, but it doesn't work
please advice?

this is my code : 

if (SPLCalculRistourneMois.objectif==NoYes::Yes)

SPLCalculRistourneMois_ds.object(fieldNum(SPLCalculRistourneMois,TauxRistourne)).allowEdit(true);

else
SPLCalculRistourneMois_ds.object(fieldNum(SPLCalculRistourneMois,TauxRistourne)).allowEdit(false);

    If the table field has the property allowedit to false you will never be able to edit it even with your code, you must allow to edit it and then control the property by code

    BASMA.

    As per Mariano's suggestion you need both. The "active" will handle when you move from row to row and want to set the fields property based on existing value. The "modifiedField" will set the editable status based on what you have just changed.

    Maybe if you put you code from both these methods in it may be useful.

    Can you also confirm what the actual field's editable state is on the table?

    You almost have it, write the same code in the objectif datasource field modified method
