OBJECT.ENABLE Function

Syntax

.Enable()

Description

Allows the form, field, button, checkbox, etc, to receive focus.

Discussion

The <OBJECT>.ENABLE() method applies to:

Alpha Anywhere (for <OBJECT> use the keyword "A5")
Browses (for <OBJECT> use either the <BROWSE> pointer or the name of the browse)
Forms (for <OBJECT> use either the <FORM> pointer or the name of the form)
Form Controls (for <OBJECT> use the <CONTROL> pointer or the address of the control)

The <OBJECT>.ENABLE() method makes a form able to receive focus. The method also works with fields, buttons, check boxes, etc.

The following script on the OnDepart event for the PayMethod field on a form enables the CreditCard field if the payment method is "Credit Card":

if (PayMethod.value = "Credit Card") then
    CreditCard.enable()
else
    CreditCard.disable()
end if

Limitations

Desktop applications only.
