Reference a datawindow object (nested report) in a datawindowIs it possible to reference a datawindow object in a datawindow?
My scenario :
I have a datawindow (composite) which holds another datawindow (nested
report).
This child datawindow has a OLE ActiveX object which I am trying to access
from the window which holds the composite datawindow.
The reason for this is because I need to access the ActiveX
properties/functions after the composite datawindow have been retrieved.
I've tried to get a reference to the child datawindow :
//DataWindowChild dwc_activex
dw1.getchild("dw_activex", dwc_activex)
But as datawi...
UrgentDear all,
I'm using PB 6.5.1. I have a report with the following layout:
Datawindow A contain Datawindow B, Datawindow B contain Datawindow C
And I want to get a reference to Datawindow C. However, I tried to use
GetChild() for Datawindow B. It retured -1. Thus, I also tried to get
another Datawindow D which is nested in Datawindow A and no nested
datawindow nested in it. Then, using GetChild is worked for this case. Am I
missing something?? is there any other way round?? Any ideas or suggestion
are welcome. Thanks in Advance.
Best Regards,
Andy Cheung

Simon,
Reference the DataWindow's GetChild() function in the on-line help.

GetChild() can only get reference to dddw or to a report in a composite dw.
it can't get reference to nested report.

Use the dot notation. e.g.
dw_1.Object.nt_cutomer.Object.Data = dw_customer.Object.D...

Problem Created Nested Report Object On Report DataWindowHi All
I'm using PB703 Build 10213.
I face a problem creating a Sub-Report Object on an existing Report Data
window.
When ever I try to do this the system crushes.
I also tried to copy an existing sub-report object from another datawindow.
In this case the system does not crush, but all columns on the main
datawindow, having a ddlb edit style, loose the ddlb information. (Even if
you define them again, when you close & reopen the datawindwo, they are
gone)!
Any help appreciated
Thanks In Advance

getting the reference to a nested reportHi,
I have a tabular report (dw_list) with in the detail band a nested report
(dw_nested).
How can I get a reference to the nested report??
In a composite report one can do something like:
datawindowchild ldwc
dw_composite.getchild("nameNestedReport",ldwc)
ldwc.SetTransObject(SQLCA)
ldwc.insertrow(0)
... (or one can use sharedata to fill the nested report)
However, if dw_list is not a composite report,
dw_list.getchild("nameNestedReport",ldwc) DOES NOT WORK
Is there a way to get the reference to the nested report??

Get Reference to a nested datawindowHi all!...
I have a little problem. I 'm using PB 8 and i need to get
reference to a nested dw in a main dw.
I have main datawindow, say dw_print, and a nested dw called
dw_1.
I'm trying to use dot syntax to get reference to nested
datawindow dw_1, as i have read in old posts, but i take an
error when applying this solution.
In the old posts (relatively to PB 7) someone suggested to
use this notation:
======================================================
dwcontrol.Object.nestedcontrolname { [row ] }
.Object.dwcontrolname. &
property { .property } { = value }...
Getting reference to nested reportsIn PB 6.5, I can't do a GetChild to get access to a nested report, unless
the DW is a Composite.
Anyone know if that has changed in PB 7/8?
The limitation is still there in 7.x and 8.0.

Modify a text object in a nested report object before execute the reportI'm trying to modify the text object in a nested report.
I'm using this syntax:
dw_report.Object.nested[1].Object.textobject.text = "Work Please"
When I run the report and the nested report has rows this works very well.
However when the nested report hasn't rows or it's not created because the
report that contains it wasn't executed yet (but the report is created, not
retrieved),

Getting a reference/handle to nesteds reportsI have a datawindow with several nested reports.
I wish to get a handle to each of them and then try and export their
contents to flat text.
I thought <dw_control>.getchild(<'name of nested report'>,<datawindowchild
variable>) would work, but it returns a -1.
I'm using PB6.5, Windows2000 Pro.
It is absolutely correct and must work.
Check for the correctness of 'name of nested report'.

Get objects of nested report dynamicallyI want to get the objects of a nested report.
But I want to write this dynamically...
In the example : dw_grid is the main datawindow
dw_1 is a nested report
Is it possible to use a variable instead of dw_1 ??
string ls_Objects
ls_Objects = dw_grid.object.dw_1.object.Datawindow.Objects
I have tried to write the syntax with describe() function but it doesn't
work. (ls_objects = '!')
This example (under) works fine but I still have the same problem.
The nested report is not dynamic. I still have to use dw_1 ...

How to get data from nested report in datawindow?I am using PB6.5

Any help is apreciated...

Mladen,
If your nested report is on a composite DW and it doesn't itself have nested
reports in it then you can use GetChild() to get a ref to the nested report
then use the ref to call typical DW functions. Use those functions to grab
the data and do what you want with it.
If GetChild() doesn't work (because your DW doesn't match...
Getting a reference to a DW in a nested reportI need to get a reference to a datawindow in a nested report.
The format (dw_1.Object.rpt_1) gets me a dwObject reference. I need an
actual datawindow reference.
Please, no off the cuff answers (and flat out uninformed answers).

Wade,
There are quite a few restrictions when dealing with nested DWs.
Is this a true nest (i.e., an instance per master row), or
a nest inside a composite? You can get a child handle on a nest
