An application offers a user with ‘Administrative rights’ the ability to browse any of the tables in the application.
The application lets the user enter the commands in an editbox. So, for example, the user could enter these commands :
The application then compiles and executes these commands, and (in this case) the standard BROWSE window is displayed, showing all the records down the screen and the columns for each of the fields across the screen, (In this case the application usually appends a NOCAPTION clause to the BROW command)
Fields which are numeric are shown in STR(9,2) format. It would be nice to offer an option whereby fields with more decimal places could be shown with their full precision. And fields of type ‘Currency’ could perhaps be shown with 4 decimal places. Could anyone suggest a way that I could offer this facility?
The standard BROWSE command lets the user modify the contents of a table at run-time. It would be nice to continue to offer the user that option as well.
