Hi!
I want to define numeric textbox, but I want to paste to definition my InputMask
I'm trying:
Code: Select all
cMyFormat := "999 999.999"
@ 30,250 TEXTBOX T_Ilosc ;
Value 1 ;
NUMERIC ;
FONT "Arial" SIZE 9;
WIDTH 120 HEIGHT 20;
RIGHTALIGN ;
INPUTMASK cMyFormat
but I can't compile it.
I've tried to use
&cMyFormat
but it still causes errors.
I've tried with Format but witout good results, too.
Is it possible to change textbox' inputmask while application's running?

Hi Marek,
The problem is not in inputmask. It is in the order of parameters.
This is the syntax of @... textbox command
Code: Select all
@ <row>,<col> TEXTBOX <name> ;
[ <dummy1: OF, PARENT> <parent> ] ;
[ HEIGHT <height> ] ;
[ WIDTH <w> ] ;
[ FIELD <field> ] ;
[ VALUE <value> ] ;
[ < readonly: READONLY > ] ;
[ FONT <fontname> ] ;
[ SIZE <fontsize> ] ;
[ <bold : BOLD> ] ;
[ <italic : ITALIC> ] ;
[ <underline : UNDERLINE> ] ;
[ <strikeout : STRIKEOUT> ] ;
[ TOOLTIP <tooltip> ] ;
[ BACKCOLOR <backcolor> ] ;
[ FONTCOLOR <fontcolor> ] ;
NUMERIC ;
INPUTMASK <inputmask> ;
[ FORMAT <format> ] ;
[ ON CHANGE <change> ] ;
[ ON GOTFOCUS <gotfocus> ] ;
[ ON LOSTFOCUS <lostfocus> ] ;
[ ON ENTER <enter> ] ;
[ <RightAlign: RIGHTALIGN> ] ;
[ <invisible: INVISIBLE> ] ;
[ <notabstop: NOTABSTOP> ] ;
[ HELPID <helpid> ]
So, your code should be,
Code: Select all
cMyFormat := "999 999.999"
@ 30,250 TEXTBOX T_Ilosc ;
HEIGHT 20;
Value 1 ;
WIDTH 120;
FONT "Arial" SIZE 9;
NUMERIC INPUTMASK cMyFormat;
RIGHTALIGN
or simply you can use alternate syntax.

Many thanks Rathi!
I'm using an old minigui.chm where only positioned syntax is described.
I forgot that the order of phrases counts.
Mainly, I'm using IDE for defining window, but changing of inputmask is not possible "on the fly" (am I wrong???).
One of my clients requests parametric INPUTMASK
So, once again, thanks
Best regards!

Only now I had seen that the recent HMG reference is also not correct.

Marek:
This work ok...
cMyFormat := "999 999.999"
@ 30,250 TEXTBOX T_Ilosc ;
Value 1 ;
FONT "Arial" SIZE 9;
WIDTH 120 HEIGHT 20;
NUMERIC ;
INPUTMASK cMyFormat;
