Abandon changes on request find

From DataFlex Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search

I recently had a customer complain that closing a view will trigger "Abandon Changes?" - but using Find Next/Previous does not. Once I thought about it, I realized this really wasn't just another "OK, they're the customer..." request.

    Procedure Request_Find Integer mode Integer entUpdtFlag
       Integer iAnswer
       
       If ((HasRecord(Server(Self))) and (Should_Save(Server(Self)))) Begin
            Move (YesNo_Box("Changes Exist. Abandon changes and continue with the find?", "Confirm")) to iAnswer
            If (iAnswer<>MBR_Yes) Procedure_Return
       End
       
       Forward Send Request_Find mode entUpdtFlag
   End_Procedure
