 Posted: Wed Jul 16, 2008 9:54 am Post subject: How to Combine a While VISIBLE and an Execute command. |
 |
|
I have built a general purpose form creator where you provide a 'Name' and parameters for the form to create. Then I want to do the ...
while $myform.visible
$=Execute($myform.DoEvents())
loop
However in this general purpose scheme we use the execute() to resolve the form name. I am not having much luck getting the syntax to work here.
| Code: |
$ = Showform("MYFORM")
;---------------------------------------------
Function ShowForm($MN)
Dim $Form
$Form='Form_'+$MN
$ = execute("$$$Form.Show") ; Works fine
while execute("$$$Form.Visible") ; HELP !
$Nul = Execute("$$Form.DoEvents()") ; HELP !
Loop
EndFunction

Think you might need something like a $Visible variable in there, like:
| Code: |
Break On
$System = CreateObject("Kixtart.System")
$Form_Shawn = $System.Form()
$Form_Shawn.Width = 640
$Form_Shawn.Height = 480
$ = Showform("Shawn")
?"Done..."
Exit 0
Function ShowForm($MN)
Dim $Form
Dim $Visible
Dim $Nul
$Form = 'Form_' + $MN
$ = Execute("$$$Form.Show") ; Works fine
$Visible = 1
While $Visible
$= Execute("$$Visible = $$$Form.Visible") ; HELP !
$Nul = Execute("$$Form.DoEvents()") ; HELP !
Loop
EndFunction

Hehe... I once was as well on that execute()-trip.
There is only one cure: a strict avoidance strategy or a good round of golf
