Loop on all controls in a form

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by deftonesmichael 140

Hi everybody,

I would like to know if someone ever done such a thing.

My aim is to change "mandatory" property after creation of each control on a form with a parameter table.

If someone have an idea, it would be welcome.

Regards,

    As per my understanding looping through form control to make the control mandatory is not good idea.
    I consider your controls on form are bound to fields in datasource table.
    so you should consider identifying the datasource field and specifying it mandatory.

    Utilize mandatory() method of Datasource field object

    Thank you for your answers.

    I follow your idea Nitesh.

       DictTable               dictTable;

       DictField               dictField;

       int                     fldCnt;

       QueryBuildFieldList     qBFL;

       qBFL = salesTable_ds.query().dataSourceTable(tablenum(SalesTable)).fields();

       for (fldCnt = 1; fldCnt <= qBFL.fieldCount() ; fldCnt++)

       {

           dictField = new DictField(tablenum(SalesTable), qBFL.field(fldCnt));      

           if(dictField.name() == "Email")

           {            

               SalesTable_ds.object(qBFL.field(fldCntjavascript:void(0);)).mandatory(true);    

           }                    

       }

    it works perfectly !!
