Reg filter in the fields in form

Posted on by AXTechie2120 568

Hi guys,

I have a form in which I created three fields namely,

Name 

checkbox

Window field

Now I have created a new text field in that form and now whenever I type starting letters it should filter that grid based on letters typed in that textbox.

Please give some suggestions.

Regards,

AXTechie

    Hi AXTechie2120!

    On your text field override textChange() method and after super() call yourTable_DS.executeQuery().

    On yourTable DS override executeQuery() method and write the following code:

    public void executeQuery()
{
    if (yourTextField.valueStr())
        SysQuery::findOrCreateRange(this.query().dataSourceTable(tableNum(YourTable)), fieldnum(YourTable, YourField)).value(SysQuery::valueLike(yourTextField.valueStr));
    else
        this.query().dataSourceTable(tableNum(YourTable)).clearRange(fieldnum(YourTable, YourField));

    super();
}


    But it's not good idea to executeQuery on every letter typing. Maybe will be enough to call executeQuery after you finish typing?

    Hi Rustem,

    Thanks your reply,

    But my  requirement  is different.

    If i have four name like this,

    andrew, anderson etc,

    If I type a it should filter both names  and if i "andr" it should show only andrew ..

    How can i achieve this,

    Please advise.

    Regards,

    Then you need to override modified() method on your text control, call executeQuery() after super(), put text like "andrew, anderson" or "andr*, anders*" and leave field or press Enter.

    And remove textChange() method.

    What you mean by "Is there anythere way with pressing the enter button" ?

    Sorry without pressing enter button.

    Moreover the filter searches for the letter that we  type and show all records that contains that letter but what i want is to show the record starting with that letter.

    Is there any modifications that i need  to do in that query.

    please advise.

    Try to change SysQuery::valueLike() with SysQuery::valueLikeAfter()
