FORMULA LANGUAGE

Examples: @DialogBox
1. A form called "Profile" contains a button whose formula is

@DialogBox("Profile Options"; [AUTOHORZFIT] : [AUTOVERTFIT] )

Both Profile and Profile Options have a field named "Comments." When the user clicks the button, the document is displayed in a dialog box, using the Profile Options form. The dialog box is scaled to fit the layout region on Profile Options.

The user can interact with the dialog box, for example, by editing the Comments field.

The user clicks OK. The changes made to the Comments field are reflected in the document, if it is in Edit mode.

2. This formula displays a form named "Help screen" for reading only.

@DialogBox("Help screen"; [AUTOHORZFIT] : [AUTOVERTFIT] : [NOCANCEL] : [NONEWFIELDS] : [READONLY]; "Help")

3. This formula sizes the table in the form to the dialog box and does not display the OK button.

@DialogBox( "Table Test" ; [AUTOHORZFIT] : [AUTOVERTFIT] : [SIZETOTABLE] : [NOOKCANCEL])

4. This formula displays the "info" form in a dialog box entitled, "Provide information," that has no dialog box buttons. The only way the user can close this form to return to the current document is to click the Close icon in the upper right corner of the dialog box.

@DialogBox("info";[NOCANCEL]:[NOOKCANCEL];"Provide information")
