VIEW-FIRST-COLUMN-ON-REOPEN attribute

Controls whether the browse, when an OPEN Query statement is run, displays the first column in the viewport or the columns that were in the viewport before the Query was reopened.

Data type: LOGICAL

Access: Readable/Writeable

Applies to: BROWSE widget

When the VIEW-FIRST-COLUMN-ON-REOPEN attribute is set to:

• TRUE, and the query for a browse is reopened, the browse displays the first row of data and the first column in the leftmost position
• FALSE, and the query for a browse is reopened, the browse displays the first row of data and the columns that were displayed in the viewport before the query was reopened

  For example, if this attribute is set to FALSE and a user had scrolled to the far-right column, the next time the browse for a query is reopened, the browse displays the first row of data and the far-right column.

The default value is FALSE.
