PML2........help needed

Hi...
I am new to PML2 and creating a new macro...
I have a boolean variable for which value can be True or false..
I could able to get the same on the form. but whenever i open the form nex time  the value gets vanished.

eg... if i cahnged a value of the variable to true i want it tobe true even when i open the form for the no of times and unless some user changes it to false....

Please suggest


Thank you in advance

You should ask this in the PML1 PML2 forum.
You will find lots of help and guidance there.

As a regular user i dont have access to PML and PM2 forums.Hence i was not able to write in the same.:(

So join up for premium membership. It pays to keep the forum going.
It is not expensive.
There are people on this forum who seem to only give help and guidance and pass on their knowledge to others. These people have who have joined up so why not those who only want or need that help.

don't put a "!this.callback" in constructing the form.

"!this.callback" function is executed whenever the form is active. Thus, when you put value (e.g. !this.callback = '!this.initialize()') to it, everytime it is active, !this.initialize() will be executed.

hope you get what i mean.

no...i dont exactly....

But i changed the Boolean Attrib to text and it worked ok....
I think it is not possible for Boolean variable :(

You need to be more specific, is it a form gadget, ie a text gadget. if so you need to set its value to TRUE in the .init() method;

after you have defined the form you need an initialization method to set required values;

define method .init()
 !this.text.val = |default|
endmethod

if it just a simple variable you can create a member in the form definition;

member .formmember is boolean

then in the initialisation method

!this.formmember = TRUE

hope this helps.

We have a section for PML/PML2, there are a lot of stuff there. Although I know $15 a year could be a lot of money for someone, I would highly suggest you be a subscriber.

It goes a long way supporting the server and keep this site running.
