FRAME-DOWN function Returns an INTEGER value that represents the number of iterations in a frame. Note: Does not apply to SpeedScript programming. Syntax FRAME-DOWN [ ( frame ) ] frame The name of the frame whose number down you are trying to determine. If you do not supply a frame name, the FRAME-DOWN function uses the default frame for the block it is in. If the FRAME-DOWN function is in a DO block, the function uses the default frame scoped to the block containing the DO block. Example This procedure displays Customers in a frame. When the frame is full, the procedure prompts “Do you want to see the next page?” The procedure recognizes that the frame is full when the value of FRAME-LINE (current logical line number) equals the value of FRAME-DOWN (number of iterations in the frame). r-frdown.p DEFINE VARIABLE ans AS LOGICAL NO-UNDO. REPEAT: FIND NEXT Customer NO-LOCK. DISPLAY Customer.CustNum Customer.Name. IF FRAME-LINE = FRAME-DOWN THEN DO: MESSAGE "Do you want to see the next page ?" UPDATE ans. IF NOT ans THEN LEAVE. END. END. Note The FRAME-DOWN function returns a value of 0 if used with a single frame or if the frame is not in view when the function is evaluated.
