Has anyone done anything like this? I'd rather not reinvent the wheel.
I would like to bring up a city name as the user types, and when a match
appears allow the user to press [enter] to save it or keep on typing if
it is a new city. I've got insert after and update after triggers to add
a new city to a table if it isn't already in it. I tried using a right
click eep on the field, but it's not elegant.
Albert,
Take a look at the "On Key Press" EEP option of DB Edit or Variable Edit
controls to achieve such goal.
R:BASE eXtreme 9.5 SAT Sample Applications includes an application to
demonstrate the use of such cool feature in R:BASE.
Database...: RBU_SAT
Section....: Sample Applications (Part II)
Application: Search Screens using the "On Key Press" EEP
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
