Hey Mark,

Can I get a copy of whatever 'Offline' documentation you've got?

I think I'd like to look into this 'Offline' thing.

Thanks.

JJ

Activity on this list seems a bit slow lately, so...

Is there a way to programmatically display the list of items in a DropDown element upon initial display of a form, rather than having to have a user touch the DropDown first?

I've tried setting the 'hasFocus' property of the DropDown, but that ...

Mark,

Thanks, but in order to use the EXFMT opcode in RPG I've actually got to have a display file defined, which means I've got to have DDS, even if it's just an empty record. That's what I'm trying to avoid.

I've gone the route of just using a table of forms anyway, so it's cool. Just thought I ...

I thought I'd like to use the 'template' facility (LRNG_SendTemplate) today with a form I'm creating, but all my form content is created dynamically, and I don't use any display files. Is there a way to send a template to the mobile device without using EXFMT (or WRITE/READ)?

I tried creating a ...

Follow up to original post:

LongRange for RPG runtime version 14 includes the new procedure 'LRNG_GetUsing' that retrieves the current context.

I just started playing with this new functionality, and I must say it will be very handy. A couple of questions that came to mind are:

1. (A little off topic, but...) Is there a "what's new" document for RT 14? I downloaded the newest 'Programming LongRange with RPG' pdf and scanned for '14' and ...

Mark,

YES!!! That is EXACTLY what I was looking for, 'LRNG_DiscardPropertyChanges', and your description of its use is exactly what my problem was.

I have 'formView A' which, under some situations, will "switch control" to 'formView B', but each of my formView programs, upon starting, will invoke ...

Paul,

Thanks, but I had already tried all variations I could think of on the LRNG_AssignNullToProp() thing ('/form', '/form.fields', even '/form.fields.lblDriver' (the fields I had created)). I've found that with LongRange, sometimes there are "undocumented" features hidden away, if only I take a ...

Let's say that I've created a couple of U/I elements dynamically by referencing the elements within the context of a form, but then prior to sending the form to the device (prior to issuing LRNG_SendReceive in my case, since I have chosen to not use display files), I want to clear the "form buffer ...

I've been puzzling this one too long, so I've got to ask...

I've created a utility procedure to show a context sensitive menu (I need more control than is provided with the built-in context menu) on a popOver form, and it works fine except for the message field, which is a multiline textbox UI ...
