copying/transfering datawindow results to another datawindowI have a window which display all the records in the datawindow and at
runtime, I have the option of filtering the data. Once the data is
filtered/unfiltered, I would like all the results to open in a new window
generated in a specific report (datawindow).
So, how can I copy all the data from the filtered results? and how do I
pass these filtered results to the report datawindow?
This has been answered in another group, please don't cross post

You can use one of the following
* dw_source.RowsCopy(1, il_Rows, Filter!, dw_dest, 1, Filter!)
or
* dw_dest.Object.Data = dw_source.Object.Data (all date of all

Inserting datawindow to another datawindowHello,
what is the best (ok, any) method of inserting all visual objects
from first datawindow to second datawindow, while keeping
the objects from second datawindow on their place?
Thank you for your time :-)
Jakub Janda
The best method would be to go back to design :-))

copying datawindows to a composite datawindowhi, I have a window with 3 different dw-reports. The problem I have is
that one of the windows can be modify by the user, therefore if I
include the updatable dw in the composite it will not reflect the latest
information. How can I make sure I that when the updatable dw is
changed, the changes are reflected in the composite also. Do I have to
copy the dw and if so how can I do that, or is there an easier way to do
that.
Thanks
Jose

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.

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 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 ...

Anyone can help me out with this ?

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? ...
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

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 A called by another datawindow Bhi all,
I have one datawindow A and it is retrieved data from the database by
dw_A.settransobject(sqlca)
dw_A.retrieve(iv_tickler.borw_id,gv_tickler.tklr_seqno,gv_curr_userid)
Now, I would like to give the dataojbect in dw_A with a DropDownDW B.
I have given the retrival requirement in the datawindow B. When i called
this B from A, it asks for the retrieval argument. I give it and it
works......but i would like to give it from my datawindow in datawindow A
so that i dont' have to give it my mannual each time.
What is the method? use the global variable first?

nested datawindow within another nested datawindow?I was trying to create a report which has a nested datawindow within another
nested datawindow, and PB didn't seem to go for this... got memory errors.
Is this even possible? I searched all of the usual resources and couldn't
find anything about this... maybe they assumed nobody would be dumb enough
to try.
thanks,

It is perfectly legal to have multiple levels of nested reports. However,
nesting isn't supported for certain DW types like grid and n-up. Try testing
your DWs on their own to ensure that they work properly. Then nest them one
at a time and try to i...
