I have an instance datawindow declared : Ex: u_dw idw Then I do the following function: Function : of_registerdw(datawindow adw) Script : idw = adw In another function I want to set another datawindow(ldw) equal to idw I thought : u_dw ldw ldw = idw But when I destroy idw, also ldw is destroyed and that may not happen. How can I copy idw into ldw without destroying ldw when I destroy idw? Thanks for your time! Sandra Sandra, All you are doing is copying object reference to another variable.

copying datawindows to a composite datawindow
hi, 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.

How to edit data in Datawindow
Hi, I am new to PB and wonder what to do so I can click the Datawindow and change the data in it. Is that difficult? I can create a DW, but can not change/edit the data in it..... Thx, Johny Johny, no it's not difficult. I suspect that you have no tab orders set for any of your columns. Without a tab sequence (order), the columns are not clickable or editable.

RTF data on a datawindow?
I have used the RTF control in PB 6.5.1 to save RTF formatted data into an Oracle table. Now I want to print that column, with its RTF formatting, on a datawindow. But I cannot figure out how to do so. On my datawindow I've tried the OLE and DB OLE column types, but cannot get either to display/print the column. I've also tried the RTF datawindow style with no success. Is this possible with PB? Thanks - Jim. ...

Copy blobcolumn data between datawindows
I need to copy the data in a blobcolumn to another blobcolumn in another datawindow (which contains another table with different columns - but it does have a blobcolumn). I do not find anything in the documentation about it. And the Sybase.DataWindow.GraphicObjectBlobColumn class unfortunately does NOT have an "ObjectData" property... Does anyone have an idea on how to do it (without having to first save the target row in the target datawindow to the database) ? Best regards Lars Sweden Well, GraphicObjectBlobColumn probably wouldn't...

DataWindow Within DataWindow
How 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? ...
