I am not sure of the actual problem as it appears you are showing the value in the rich text box:-

THIS-OBJECT:richTextBox1:Text = ipvalue.

Is the problem that you want to show all the previous values because currently it is only showing the previous value passed? If so, then does something like this solve?:

METHOD PUBLIC VOID setrichTextBox1value(INPUT ipvalue AS CHARACTER ):
   // Add a carriage return.
   IF THIS-OBJECT:richTextBox1:Text <> "" THEN
      THIS-OBJECT:richTextBox1:Text = THIS-OBJECT:richTextBox1:Text + CHR(13).

   THIS-OBJECT:richTextBox1:Text = THIS-OBJECT:richTextBox1:Text + ipvalue.
END METHOD.

it show like this empty in the message box.



But if i add Pause to the method
METHOD PUBLIC VOID setrichTextBox1value(INPUT ipvalue AS CHARACTER ):
THIS-OBJECT:richTextBox1:Text = ipvalue.
PAUSE.
so it it show the value, but with click with every value

 

[Osborne]

That seems to suggest that something extra is happening that is clearing the rich text box. It could be the components are being reinitialized or the setrichTextBox1value method is being called again by something else which is passing a blank value. From what you have posted neither of these seem to be happening.

If as a first try you add a label component and also update that at the same time the rich text box gets updated does that get cleared as well? Depending on what happens it will hopefully help track down the problem.

This is the hole Class,
i can not see that Method setrichTextBox1value calls again.

Can duplicate the problem and think I know what you require. Put this extra line in the setrichTextBox1value method:

THIS-OBJECT:Refresh().

.

 

[Rafeda Malki]

Yeah this works, with the Refresh().
