EditDataItemFlagSet

Note: This page includes content based on the F1 documentation for Centura development. It may be partially converted to support APF development, but should be regarded to be of uncertain actuality. It is provided as is. Eventually, it should be replaced by documentation available from within Visual Studio.

SalNumber EditDataItemFlagSet(SalNumber nFlags, SalBoolean bSet)

The EditDataItemFlagSet method set's or clears one or more data item field flags.

Parameters

Name	Description
SalNumber nFlags	Flags to set or clear. Specify any Const.FIELD_* constant. You can combine several flags with the or (\|) operator.
SalBoolean bSet	Specify true to set the data item flag, false to clear it.

Returns

This method does not return a value.

Example

Data Field: dfdScheduledDate
	Message Actions
		On SAM_Create
			Call SalSendClassMessage( SAM_Create, wParam, lParam )
			! Field is disabled due to not having a editable data source. Set item to editable.
			Call EditDataItemFlagSet( FIELD_Update, TRUE )

Following is the way to implement the above Centura example in the application Forms

this.dfdScheduledDate.MessageActions += new SalMessageHandler(this.dfdScheduledDate_MessageActions);

private void dfdScheduledDate_MessageActions(ref SalMessage message)
{
	#region Actions
	switch (message.Code)
	{
		case Sys.SAM_Create:
			this.dfdScheduledDate_OnSAM_Create(ref message);
			break;
	}
	#endregion
}

private void dfdScheduledDate_OnSAM_Create(ref SalMessage message)
{
	#region Actions
	message.Handled = true;
	Sal.SendClassMessage(Sys.SAM_Create, Sys.wParam, Sys.lParam);
	// Field is disabled due to not having a editable data source. Set item to editable.
	this.dfdScheduledDate.EditDataItemFlagSet(Const.FIELD_Update, true);
	#endregion
}
