First Time Working with Browse

[melmckee72]

This is my first time using browse and query to search for and allow updating of fields within a table.

I've gotten to the point where I've got the query working properly. I'm displaying 2 fields and have all enabled for updating.

Problem is I can't get to the second field in the record.

Code looks like this:

def query jobfunc for bempfunc.
define browse func
query jobfunc no-wait
display bempfunc.bfcde bempfunc.bfjob enable all
with 10 down no-row-markers no-box.

define fram job
func
with title "Job Functions" .

open query jobfunc
for each bempfunc where blstnme = "Mckee".
enable all with fram job .
wait-for close of current-window.


The references I have are a little sketchy when it comes to this, and I can't figure out what I am missing.

Thanks in advance.

I'm not SURE that I understand you're problem. But what I think you said is that you've enable fields so that the user can update them directly in the browse. But only one field in a row is currently updateable, and you can't get to the other field in the row. If that's correct, read on, if not - well...

Ctrl-U and and Ctrl-G will move from field to field within a row. (nicely intuitive don't you think?!).

How are you trying to get to the other field? TAB? Mouse? Remember, the return key is not always active as a TAB key, but you can use:
SESSIONATA-ENTRY-RETURN = YES.
to make the enter key on a pc work like the tab key.
