I am trying to hide the main menu(which is an external form file) when a
user click on a menu item that brings up a form. That way the user only
sees the form.
I tried:
PROPERTY RBASE_FORM WINDOW_STATE 'MINIMIZED'
But it hides both the menu form and the form it opened. What is the best
strategy to do this??
Dan,
Without knowing all details and sequence of custom EEPs, I suggest to
take advantage of "ALPHABLEND" and "ALPHABLENDVALUE nnn" options of
the form properties to achieve you goal.
Try the following code as custom EEP for the button that brings up the
second form.
-- Button EEP
PROPERTY RBASE_FORM ALPHABLEND 'TRUE'
PROPERTY RBASE_FORM ALPHABLENDVALUE 0
EDIT USING formname WHERE ... ORDER BY ...
PROPERTY RBASE_FORM ALPHABLEND 'FALSE'
RETURN
Have fun!
Very Best R:egards,
