How to select a tab when in change stage

[Alberto]

Hi Bruce...

Trying and studying the code... Ive soved this using:

  IF p_web.FormSettings.action = Net:ChangeRecord or p_web.FormSettings.action = 0
      p_web.ChangeTab(loc:TabStyle,'UpdateEmpresas',1)
  END

But I have a problem (look at the "or p_web.FormSettings.action = 0")

If I use the form from a Browse it works ok, only in change mode I go to the 2nd tab, but if I call the form from a menu item using Change and the ID using p_web.AddBrowseValue('pageheadertag','empresas',emp:guidkey,p_web.gsv('emp:guid'))

p_web.FormSettings.action is never Net:ChangeRecord and loc:act is never 2

Thats why I add "or p_web.FormSettings.action = 0", only way I found.

Am I doing something wrong? or its a bug?

Post an example Alberto. Either your menu call is wrong, or your code is embedded in the wrong place.

Cant do an example now, but FWIW

This is my code (see img 2):

Code: [Select]

  ! Start of "After setting SelectField"
  ! [Priority 5000]
    p_web.AddLog(p_web.FormSettings.action&' = '&Net:ChangeRecord)
    IF p_web.FormSettings.action = Net:ChangeRecord or p_web.FormSettings.action = 0
      !p_web.SetSessionValue('UpdatePeriodos:Active',2)
        p_web.ChangeTab(loc:TabStyle,'UpdateEmpresas',1)
    END
 
  ! End of "After setting SelectField"

And my item menu (img1)

I dont think my item menu is wrong because the form opens ok in the correct record but may be Im wrong.

I have used the button’s URL value as a condition in forms.  Might be an option for you.

If p_web.GetValue(‘insert_btn’) = ‘insert’
    !Do stuff
Elsif p_web.GetValue(‘change_btn’) = ‘change’
    !Do Stuff
End

Or pass a custom value from the menu:

If p_web.GetValue(‘FromMenu’) = 1
    !Do stuff
End
