Form Manager

[GrantReid]

Hi

Being a relative newcomer to VID, I'm having a problem with the logic of the Form Manager. I have a form comprising a number of DTC Textboxes. One of the Textboxes (txtTimeStamp), I need to autofill with the current date and time. I assume that an action needs to be set in the "Actions Performed for Mode" input area.

Can anyone assist?

Thanking you in advance - Grant

You probably do not need the form manager. Just use a PageObject, and add code in the thisPage_onEnter() subroutine...

Sub thisPage_onenter()
if thisPage.firstEntered = true then
'do once-off initialisation
txtADate.value = fmtFormatDateTime(Date)
else
'something to do on subsequent server round-trips
' - like save any changes the user has made...
rsMain.updateRecord
rsMain.requery
end if

End Sub
