Select Table/Field/User/… (PickList)

Sometimes you want your user to select a sertain table/field/… When you want to program this selection all by yourself you have to make a table, override the lookup()-method, …

There is also a easy way to do this. You can use the pic**** methodes in the Global class:

How do you use these classes (you can find this example in \Forms\DocuOptionTable\Designs\Design\[Tab:TableTab]\[TabPage:Overview]\[Grid:TableOverviewGrid]\StringEdit:DocuTableName\Methods\lookup):

void lookup()
{
    tableId id;
;
    id = pickTable();
    if (! id)
        return;
    docuTable.DocuTableId = id;
    docuTable_ds.refresh();
}

The result:

When you want to create you own customized pick-dialog you can by entering the following code:

static void testPickList(Args _args)
{
    Object      formRun;
    container   con;
    ;
    formRun = classfactory.createPicklist();
    formRun.init();
 
    //fill container con
 
    formRun.choices(con); // you can add a secundary parameter wth the imiges
    formRun.caption("TEST"); // Make label
    formRun.run();
    formRun.wait();
    if (formRun.choice())
    {
        print formRun.choice();
    }
    pause;
}
