    Assigning fill-inn?

    You would simply do: Assign FI-MY-FILL-IN:SCREEN-VALUE = TMP-TABLE.TMP-FIELD where the fill-in is the fill-in you want to display the value in and the TMP-TABLE.TMP-FIELD is replaced by the temp-table or database field you want to put in there. You can also use a '+' to concatenate...

    Hidden Menu-item?

    The reason I want to hide an option is that it will confuse users who should not be seeing it...it's not a matter of security, but rather of the option not applying to 95% of users and they won't know what it does/can't ever run the program. Like I mentioned, I know I can create the menu...

    Stepping thru a field.

    I'm thinking the 2nd solution might work better...I assumed that progress allowed more than 1 character for a delimiter (as used in my num-entries function) and I'm not sure that you'll get the proper number of entries (iterations) if the text you're searching for is more than one...

    Stepping thru a field.

    Try this, instead of using an array as I did, you could use a comma delimite string (or whatever) to store the positions. If you use an array, make sure to set the extent high enough to handle the maximum possible entries found. DEF VAR V-FOUND-AT-POSITIONS AS INT EXTENT 50 NO-UNDO. DEF VAR...

    UIB problem

    When I'm editing in the UIB, if i open the Find, Replace, or Rename Procedure dialog boxes, they get bigger each time I view them. Say I open the Replace dialog 10 times, the box starts getting bigger and bigger, until it extends of the screen! I'm running XP Pro and Progress 9.1D05. This...
