GetItemString issue
I have a code snippet in rbuttondown event that looks like. Long var1 var1 = this.GetSelectedRow(0) String var2 var2 = this.GetItemString(var1,"TABLE_ATTRIBUTE") IF var2 = 1 THEN <........ do something ........> END IF TABLE_ATTRIBUTE is an attribute from table A which is varchar(15) and is not null. But this attribute is always retrieved as null and hence var2 = null. Also, certain attributes are retrieved properly in other similar code snippets whereas some are retrieved wrongly (Which is uncertain and random as what is properly retrieved and what is not). Please help on what might be the issue. All related variables and attributes are included in the DataWindow painter Column specification window.

Long var1
String var2
var1 = row
var2 = dwo.name
var2 = this.GetItemString(var1,var2)

Are you sure GetSelectedRow() is returning a valid row reference? Your var1 variable could easily be storing a zero or null itself, which would mess up your GetItemString() call.

Drop Down Datawindow issues in Datawindow
We recently moved from version 8.0.3 9704 to 8.0.3 9977. Since this move we have had nothing but grief with DropDownDatawindow style columns. Basically - we have columns that are dropdowns that the user can enter their values into or, scroll down and select from. We then have code that verifies that the value entered in the column exists in the drop down list (i.e. is the data entered by the user valid). When we get the value from the column (using either dot notation or, getitem functions) PB is giving us the display value for the drop down NOT the code value. SOMETIMES whe...
Powerbuilder 9.0.1 datawindow activex deployment issue
Hello again. I am trying to deploy the datawindow ActiveX, among other things. It really does not look like the PSDWC90.CAB file does what it needs to do. Reason I say so is, I can not get a deployment to work on a User's PC unless I install powerbuilder. Does anyone have any insight, or am I the only one using this technology? :) Use the window activex, you can associate much more functionality with your datawindow > Hello again. > > I am trying to deploy the datawindow ActiveX, among other > things.

Hello There! I have a datawindow with the TitleBar property activated, when running, this DW can be moved across the parent window, is there a way to prevent this? please help! DW controls with a TitleBar are also moveable. That's part of the package.
