Record Number of TppDBText

rbuser

Hello,

I added an OnClick-Event to some of the labels on my detail band by
doing this (while looping all report components):


(Components[i] as TppComponent).OnDrawCommandClick := eportElementClick;


This works fine, the "exportElementClick" procedure is called by
clicking the DBText element in ppViewer.

The thing I want to know is, how can I notify with record number of my
(tDataset) Table this clicked version of the DBtext belongs to?

kind regards
Bjoern

Hi Bjoern,

What exactly would you like to happen when one of the DBTexts are clicked?
Inside the OnDrawCommandClick event, you have access to the aDrawCommand
parameter. You could take a look at the value and determine which field it
is accessing.

Hello Nico,

the Report is some kind of German tax form. The user must be able to add
some information that can't be generated from a Database. So is prompt
an Edit-Field on to of the DBText the entered Value must be inserted in
the correct data row.

The actual value of an DBText won't help, because at the start all
fields are empty and after editing many of them would have equal values.

Hi Bjoern,

Take a look at the following examples. The first one shows how to get
information about a certain record when it is clicked. The second shows how
to refresh a report once the data in the dataset has been changed which is
what you will need to do once the table has been updated.

Hi Nico,

I had a quick view on the sources and using the tag to sore the needed
information seems to be an good idea (I will figure it out tomorrow). I
think this would solve my problem.

Thank you very much!
