Add datawindow control for master datawindow #2Hi,
I hope you dont't mind an newbie question here. I am following the
tutorial of the Getting Started PB5 manual and I am stuck in chapter 8
"Building Ancestor Windows". Here are the steps:
1. I create a new window ( a master/detail window)and want to add a
control to be the master DataWindow in the applic.
2. I select the UserObj button and choose TUTOR_PB.PBL
3. When I click OK the manual tells me to click in the upper left corner
but nothing happens: there is already a blanc window visible, which I
can't move with the mouse.
4. I select Properties. The name ...
DataWindow This, DataWindow That...Blah blah blah

I will print two datawindow in one page,and I use child datawindow.One master datawindow (dw_master)with two child datawindow(dc1 and dc2)dw_master("dw_dc1",dc1)
dw_master("dw_dc2",dc2)
dc1 has a argument (arg1)
dc2 has a argument (arg2)
Arg1 and Arg2 are send by one column of dw_master.
When I use retrieve() function,the datawindow can display normal,but when I
print preview or use Zoom or printsetup() ,the childdatawindow dc2 can't
display but dc1 normal!
Why??
Thanks for your help!
I'm having trouble understanding your question. Is this a composite or nested
datawindow?

How to share the datawindow to inner datawindow of nested datawindowHow to share the datawindow to inner datawindow of nested datawindow.
Ex
--------
dw_1 is normal datawindow dw_nes is nested datawindow, both are placed
one window
dw_nes contain dw_child datawindow
Question
----------------
i want to share dw_1 and dw_child.
I have tried the below code, getting error
dw_1.sharedata( dw_nes.object.dw_child)
It's the dot notation. You will need to dw_nes.GetChild("dw_child", ldwc)
where ldwc is a _local_ datawindowchild.

Datawindow, Protect property, add datawindow expression to control setting
There is already a Protect property for datawindow columns which can be an
expression. Did you mean the ReadOnly property of the whole datawindow?

Oops, I was in a hurry when I entered this ... I meant to request an
expression on the *Required* attribute for a datawindow column.

datawindowAdd direct setting and getting capability for the datawindow where clause.
This would have to be a string array in case of unions.
Return ONLY the where clause(s) in the main select (in case of sub-selects,
ignore the where clause or somehow list it as a subselect in the where or a
subselect in the select).
It would be great if I could just get and set this as a value and have the
datawindow automatically change (or add) the where clause as specified.
This is for setting the where clause dynamically at run time. Currently
have to parse through the datawindow.table.select looking f...

datawindows in composite datawindow used in datawindow.NET, are not sliding upHi,
Problem: datawindows in composite datawindow used in "datawindow.NET", are
not sliding up ,
if one dw is not visible or did not retrieve data. Resulting in unwanted
spaces.
The height of blank white space is equal to the height of the datawindow art
design time.
When I looked at the generated JavaScript, I noticed there is "div" for the
datawindow with height 0.00in
which is supposed to be not visible. Tried different options with
html/xhtml/xml same result.
But slides up ok when exported to pdf(using saveas) on web and in PB10.5
application.

Datawindows with child datawindowsI want to create a datawindow whose only data is three columns that will
themselves be drop-down data windows. These child datawindows will be
populated in PB script with dw_1.GetChild(). When I create that parent
datawindow (New | Datawindow | Freeform), what do I choose in the next
dialog box ("Which datasource would you like to use?") External?
Thanks.
That depends on how you want to populate and use the columns of the main DW.
The DDDW is an edit style that assists the user in selecting a value for the
column in the main DW. If you want to retrieve the values ...
DataWindows and datawindow objectsDifference between Datawindow and datawindowobjects?
- datawindow is a control on a userobject or a window
- datawindowobject (DWObject) is a control within a datawindow, defined in
the dataobject of the datawindow.
You refer to it as <datawindow-instance>.Object.<datawindow object>

DataWindow Within DataWindowHow Can I access/modify object/control from a Datawindow within Datawindow.
When i access/modify object/control from a Datawindow i used
dw_1.modify("name.text = 'new val'") but within another datawindow or child
datawindow it doesnt work.
Your description is difficult to understand due to the terminology. First,
a datawindow is assigned to a control - either a datawindow control or a
datastore. Second, the Modify function can only be called within a script.
With that as a basis, can you rephrase the question and describe more
precisely what you want to do? ...

How changing a datawindow attached in a datawindow control ?Hi,
I would like to set a datawindow object in a datawindow control dinamically.
So I did:
dw_control1.DataObject = 'dw_object1'
The code doesn't work right when I have a EXE.
Someone could help me ?
Thanks,

I suspect that the dataobject ('dw_object1', the actual datawindow that you
painted in the datawindow painter) is not being compiled into the .exe file,
since its only reference is the string 'dw_object1'. If this is the case, you
need to compile the executable with a .PBR file that include...
Vertical Scrollbar in datawindows control and dropdown datawindowsHi
1. After migrating a PB application from PB5 to 6, the vertical scrolllbar
in datawindow controls are always on after retrieving data,
even if its only one row in the datawindow control and the control is not
filled with rows.
How can i solve that?
2. I also got problems with dropdowns based on datawindows and that they
show some blank fields at the end of the list of the dopdown.
A dropdown with for instance 20 choices, has 5 blank choices at the
end of it. How can I avoid that?
