I have a form for inputting Petty Cash Receipts. Because the
report that it prints to eventually is based on a hard report by
another department, the maximum number of receipts for each
Envelope/Report is 17. I'd like to do some things on it that I
don't know how to do:
I have an "Add & New" button at the bottom of the form that the
User uses if they need to add another receipt to the same
envelope.
1) When they use that button I'd like to give them the blank form
with some of the fields pre-filled in with information from the
previous record: i.e. their Name, date, etc; things that remain
constant with each entry until they are finished entering that
envelope's receipts.
2)As they enter another receipt, I'd like the Receipt number to
automatically increment by one. They need to be able to edit the
field if they don't want that number and the numbers run 1-17 for
each envelope so it can't be an autoincrement on the table
3)When they go to enter a new record for that envelope, I'd like
to display their previous entry. (so that if the phone rings,
etc, they know where they were when they get back to finish)
Again, I don't want that to happen until after they have entered
one receipt and opted to enter another on the same envelope.
I'm thinking a lot of these could be accomplished with
GetProperty, maybe on an eep on the button?? I'm just not sure if
I'm on the right track or quite how to start.
Also, if you use a pre-defined eep for a button, is there
anywhere to see what that eep is? i.e is there anywhere in the
RBase documentation that shows what the code behind those
pre-defined eeps are?
thanks,
Lin
