From: Bill Tillick on 5 Jun 2010 19:05 Thanks all, I am sure my solution is somewhere in those varied suggestions. Will particularly look at bCheckColumn as suggested by Geoff, because it sounds most like what I need. I also have #MULTIPLE to look into, as that may also solve the problem. I do not have a requirement to retain the checkbox value. I started out trying to solve my problem in bB1.4 but now see that bB3 offers more possibilities. Thanks again, this is a great forum. Bill

Bill to add a check column ... oCol:=bCheckColumn{SELF:oDCSvyList, SELF:oAD, #SELECT} oCol:HyperLabel:Caption:='Select' oCol:Width:=40 SELF:oDCSvyList:AddColumn(oCol) SELF:oDCSvyList:OpenColumn(oCol,1) in celledit() method you can control if its settable ... and at the bottom we show the use the number selected .. METHOD CellEdit(oEvent) CLASS Svy_Alloc LOCAL oColumn AS bDataColumn LOCAL oCol AS bCheckColumn IF oEvent:EditMode=BEDIT_CREATE IF SELF:lPrinting RETURN FALSE ENDIF oColumn:=oEvent:Control:GetOpenColumn(oEvent:EditCell:Column) IF oColumn:FieldSym=#SELECT IF SELF:lWorks IF ! SELF:WorksIssd(SELF:oAD:FIELDGET(#ASSETREF)) == NULL_DATE RETURN FALSE ENDIF ELSE IF ! Empty(LookupName(SELF:oAD:FIELDGET(#ASSETREF), #HANDLER)) RETURN FALSE ENDIF ENDIF ENDIF ENDIF oCol:=SELF:oDCSvyList:GetColumn(#SELECT) SELF:oDCNoSel:Value:=NTrim(oCol:CheckedCount) RETURN TRUE and then you need to get hold of the records that have been checked at some stage to actually process them ... METHOD GetCheckedRecNos CLASS Svy_Alloc LOCAL aRecNos:={} AS ARRAY LOCAL oCol AS bCheckColumn LOCAL auBlock AS ARRAY LOCAL iBlockCount AS DWORD LOCAL iBlock AS DWORD LOCAL iRecStart AS INT LOCAL iRecEnd AS INT LOCAL iRecNo AS INT oCol:=SELF:oDCSvyList:GetColumn(#Select) auBlock := oCol:RecordList iBlockCount := ALen(auBlock) FOR iBlock:=1 UPTO iBlockCount iRecStart := auBlock[iBlock, BCCB_STARTRECNO] iRecEnd := auBlock[iBlock, BCCB_ENDRECNO] FOR iRecNo := iRecStart UPTO iRecEnd AAdd(aRecNos, iRecNo) NEXT NEXT RETURN aRecNos hope that helps richard |
