I have a checkbox, a textbox and a combo box that need to work together
(I remember seeing this somewhere but lost the code snippet!)
the checkbox toggles whether the textbox is visible. the combo box is a dropdown list of the distinct items in a field, -- when you check "NEW" the textbox appears and a new item can be inserted (added for the record and the combo refreshed so it becomes part of the dropdown list)
so my method added to the form is setnewccat()
and is is called from the checkbox's interactivechange method.
the setnewcat() method is:
IF THISFORM.ctn_de_asset_pg1.ctn_cat.chkAddCat.Value
* If the checkbox is checked
THISFORM.ctn_de_asset_pg1.ctn_cat.txtccategory.visible = .T.
THISFORM.ctn_de_asset_pg1.ctn_cat.cbo_cat.visible = .F.
ELSE
THISFORM.ctn_de_asset_pg1.ctn_cat.txtccategory.visible = .F.
THISFORM.ctn_de_asset_pg1.ctn_cat.cbo_cat.visible = .T.
ENDIF
but I get a Data type/Mmismatch error:
Error #: 9
Message: Data type mismatch.
Line #: 1
Code: IF THISFORM.ctn_de_asset_pg1.ctn_cat.chkAddCat.Value
Method: setcatnew
Object: fa_deasset_form
this seems like it should work, or do I have my syntax all wrong???
Thanks for any help!
