Detect click in table column

[soapagent]

I'm building a table where I'd like the user to be able to click on a particular column and in the code detect which column and row was clicked. Is this possible?

This is certainly possible. Is the table on an Online or an Offline/Local form?

Online

In the case of a table an Online form view, reading the event sender ID (CurrentOp.SenderID property) will identify which element triggered the event.

In RDMLX code for LongRange....

Code: Select all

#Com_Owner.Get_EventSender Senderid_N(1) Senderid(#uSender1)

would return the column name and ....

Code: Select all

#Com_Owner.Get_EventSender Senderid_N(2) Senderid(#uSender2)

would return the row ID of the table cell that triggered the event.

The CurrentOp.SenderID is a list property of the fully qualified name of the UI element that triggered the event in reverse order. In the case of clicking on a cell in a table on an Online form the CurrentOp.SenderID would contain the following;

• CurrentOp.SenderID%1 = Column Name
  CurrentOp.SenderID%2 = Row ID
  CurrentOp.SenderID%3 = Table Name
  CurrentOp.SenderID%4 = Form Name (Form in case of the main form)

Shipped LongRange LANSA Online examples of using the event sender ID to identify the element that triggered the event can be found in LRDM0002 and LRDM0004.

Please try this out and post again if you have any problems with this.
