Copy field values

[t88]

hi
I have another question......
I used a field to write my box number.. but now i would like to move all values in another free field.....
can somebody write me the script to make it ?

thank you very much

PS: where can i see a list af all field names?

[antp]

To move values from field A to field B :

Code: Select all

program NewScript;
begin
  SetField(fieldB, GetField(fieldA));
  SetField(fieldA, '');
end.

The list of fields name is in the help file

Hi there, that's exactly what I've been looking for as well... But how can I insert other text (not from another field) with this script - if it's possible at all...

Thanks in advance!

Code: Select all

SetField(fieldName, 'your new text');

You can put any text string between quotes '...'
If you need to put a quote inside it, put two of them:

Code: Select all

SetField(fieldName, 'it''s easy');

For linebreaks:

Code: Select all

SetField(fieldName, 'line 1' + #13#10 + 'line 2');

Thanks a lot! That's a quick reply, and very helpful!

And your program's the best - even compared to commercial ones - keep the pot boiling!
