You would need to work with the concept of a "child form". Assuming you use a pushbutton to open the child form. Note -- this is completely untested: function FindButton_onClick() // whatever this is named set procedure to FindItForm.wfm // whatever this is named local f f = new FindItFormForm() // whatever ... f.mdi := false f.readModal() // at this point the child form needs to be closed // for other code to execute, because it was opened // modal // get the primary key or other value from the table // used in the child form, which should still be pointing // to the record found by the user: nPrimary = f.rowset.fields["name_of_primary"].value // using the primary key, you can find the record // in the parent form (this assumes the index is set // to the primary key, if not you may want to use // the rowset's applyLocate() instead: form.rowset.findKey( nPrimary ) // cleanup release object f f = null close procedure FindItForm.wfm return -- *Ken Mayer* Ken's dBASE Page: http://www.goldenstag.net/dbase The dUFLP: http://www.goldenstag.net/dbase/index.htm#duflp dBASE Books: http://www.goldenstag.net/dbase/Books/dBASEBooks.htm | |
