Can I stop update form from being called from inside an insert button? 1

[rleiman]

Hi Everyone.

I have an update form which includes a browse along with a set of insert, change, and delete buttons.

When the user selects the insert button, I display a message if the total layaway sales amount is 0. The insert button calls another update form to handle the individual layaway payment details.

Can I prevent the update form from being called if the total layaway sales amount is 0?

Thanks.

Hi Emad,

In the EVENT:Accepted Embed of the ?Insert button BEFORE the parent call, do the following :

IF LayawaySales = 0
BEEP
MESSAGE('Must have SALE ...')
SELECT(?Browse) ! OR WHATEVER CONTROL YOU WANT
END
