ChildInputValue property

(Windows only; GUI for .NET only)

Returns a Progress.Data.InputValue instance containing input values for all fields in the current row of the specified child temp-table displayed in the bound .NET control. Use the indexers in this instance to access the input value of a specific field in the row.

Use this property when the BindingSource object is bound to a ProDataSet object that contains child buffers.

Data type:

Progress.Data.InputValue class

Access:

PUBLIC Read-only

Applies to:

Progress.Data.BindingSource class

 

Syntax 

ChildInputValue[ buffer-handle | buffer-name ]

buffer-handle

A HANDLE variable that represents the handle to the child temp-table buffer whose input values you want to access.

buffer-name

A CHARACTER expression that evaluates to the name of the child temp-table buffer whose input values you want to access.

The following code fragment illustrates how to use this property:

 

DEFINE VARIABLE orderInpVals AS Progress.Data.InputValue NO-UNDO. DEFINE VARIABLE orderNum     AS INTEGER                  NO-UNDO.   bufName = args:Row:Band:KEY.   IF bufName EQ "ttOrder" THEN DO:   orderInpVals = myBindingSource:ChildInputValue[bufName].   /* InputValue indexer is 0-based */   orderNum = UNBOX( orderInpVals[0] ).   IF orderNum > 10000 THEN DO:     MESSAGE “You have reached max number of orders.”     ...   END. END.
