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. Thanks Jose In article <35B4BC1A.DCF5FD47@cs.fiu.edu>, joband02@cs.fiu.edu says... > hi, I have a window with 3 different dw-reports. The problem I have ...

copy a datawindow into another datawindow
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. You are not actually copying datawindow. Use rows...

Composite datawindow and dynamical creation of datawindows
My composite datawindow has in the detail band 1 nested datawindows. The first nested datawindow is always fixed. What I want to do is to add dynamicly more drop down datawindows, is this possible. I've tried several options but it never worked, so I'm affraid it is not possible. Has anyone an idea. Thanks in advance. Marc. I have what appears to be a similar requirement, a dw with nested dw, and I want to modify the nested dw to alter some of the field labels at runtime. I've a feeling it's not possible, as GetChild doesn't work, presu...

copying/transfering datawindow results to another datawindow
I have a window which display all the records in the datawindow and at runtime, I have the option of filtering the data.

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? ...

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 objects data copying
How can we copy data from one datawindow object of free form presentation style to another datawindow object that has more number of fields than latter ? To be more clear ------------------ 1.
