Scoping

From: Grant on 15 Dec 2009 17:42 I am trying to figure out how to use Scopes to seperate out only record (s) of interest but I must be missing a big step in the logic. I have a data window that will display data from a single indexed server. When I apply the scope conditions for top and bottom scopes nothing happens. Can someone tell me if I missing something here. Method PostInit(oWindow, iCtlID, oServer, uExtra) CLASS dtwMyData

LOCAL odbsServer as DBServer odbsServer L= svrCustomer{} odbsServer:GoTop() odbsServer:OrderScope(TOPSCOPE, "FIELDGET(#NAME) == 'Woodside Construction ") odbsServer:OrderScope(BOTTOMSCOPE, FIELDGET(#NAMEA) == 'Woodside Construction ") odbsServer:GoTop() I am using Scope in his example to sort one record out of about 100 but in the final app there will be more. I am trying to fiure this method out so I playing with small test programs. Thanmks for any help.

Can I not use a text value (in quotes) to set a scope for the 'Name' field of the server? I thought the data was all resolved to a value when the file was indexed. Still confused!

Grant: Unless I am mistaken you would want something like odbsServer:OrderScope(TOPSCOPE, "Woodside Construction") odbsServer:OrderScope(BOTTOMSCOPE, "Woodside Construction ") Assuming the you have the server set to an index that starts with your "Name" column.
