Blah blah blah You've heard it enough that you don't even want to comment on how many times... The DataWindow. ....but it can't be enough anymore...can it?

This includes Windowprogramming ( meaning the interface to the user: Windows, Sheets, diallougeboxes, etc.), Database operability AND Reporting!

Nested datawindow within a nested datawindow
I have a report, that contains a datawindow, which itself contains a datawindow. Everything is working fine until the number of retrieved lines get's over about 1100 primary and over about 3200 retrieved nested lines. Although the task manager (I'm using Powerbuilder 7.0.3 on Windows 2000) shows me, that there is still enough free memory, the data retrieval stops and Powerbuilder (or the application which called the Retrieve() method) ends itself without any error message. That allways happens when the datawindow has allocated about 70 MB of virtual memory. (About 99% of those ...

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, Pat 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...

Child datawindows (Nested DataWindows)
Hello all...I was wondering... I have used Child Datawindows for quite some time under PB9.03. These are invaluable when a user is in the Parent DataWindow and must choose a value from a list of choices provided by the Child DataWindow. The kind of Child DataWindow I am talking about is a DropDownDataWindow (DDDW). This is the only kind I have ever used. I was simply wondering whether there are more kinds of Child DataWindows other than the DDDW? Any info would be greatly appreciated.:) The next most popular use is of child DWs within Composite Presentation Style parents. Nested ...

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? ...

DataWindows and datawindow objects
Difference 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> HTH, Ben (bede) <Santhoshi> wrote in message news:3f8bee8b.4631.846930886@sybase.com... > Difference between Datawindow and datawindowobjects? Not exactly; DW Control is a "container" that reserves real-estate on the surface of a visual object. DW Obj...

datawindow
Add 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 datawindows
I 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 ...

datawindows in composite datawindow used in datawindow.NET, are not sliding up
Hi, 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 application. Also s...

Printing a datawindow with a nested datawindow under Win95
Hi PB'ers We have a strange problem when trying to print a datawindow with a nested datawindow. Printing from a 32 bit (interpreted or compiled) application under windows 95, the application crashes in the Kernel32.dll. If the same application is run under NT3.51 the there are no problems. The same goes if the same application is made as a 16 bit application. (running under NT, Win3 or Win95). We have the same problem in more than one application with different datawindows being printed, but the application doesn't crash every time a datawindow with a nested datawindo...
