Dear R:BASE Community,
R:BASE X is now providing the most productive development environment in
the history of R:BASE!
One of the more well-received features in R:BASE X for Windows is the new
"Code" and "History"
tabs within the Form/Report/Label Designers, to easily review the command
syntax for defined
Custom EEPs, table-level EEPs, and Custom Actions.
Think of it as having instant access to any defined EEP code!
With an object selected, switching to the Code tab automatically displays
the EEPs for the
control. Intentionally read-only, the EEP code can be launched in the
R:BASE Editor by double
clicking in the code. Applications with many lines of EEP syntax will also
benefit from the
supported search capabilities.
Drop-down menus within the code tab allow developers a first-hand
perspective on where and in
what controls EEP code resides. New EEPs can also be added to form objects
without the need to
switch to the Design tab (standard Form Designer display). Switching
between the Design and
Code tab can be quickly performed using the [F7] hot key.
The Code tab also provides custom settings for the initial location of the
cursor when the
R:BASE Editor is launched and advanced object descriptions in the drop-down
menu.
The History tab is a built-in backup feature to save EEP command syntax
when changes are made.
A revision and date/time is generated to help track changes as well. The
backups are stored in
a "__history" sub folder beneath the current database folder. If you prefer
your own method,
an option is available within the Form Settings to disable the EEP History
feature.
Please visit the R:BASE X for Windows page to review the many additional
