Hi all,

I have problem about displaying current records with same table(tbl_pawnitem). I have 2 transactions which are the pawned transaction and for sale transaction. and both transactions save into tbl_pawnitem table..i want to display only in my list the for sale transaction without deleting the records of pawned transaction. what condition i will use?


thanks

As it appears that the requirement is static (i.e. you ALWAYS want to display sale transactions only, it doesn't change), perhaps you'd rather set data block's WHERE property (in its Property Palette window).

sir, clarification..if I will use the set_block_property it means the columns u want to disabled will no longer appear in the other transaction..but what if all the columns that I want to disabled is the columns that I will use too? (i.e tbl_pawnitem has itemID,itemdesc and categoryname and this fieldnames are the one that I will use also for my sale transaction) what will I do?

Eh? I'm afraid you got it wrong. SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY with DEFAULT_WHERE (if that's what you are talking about) doesn't "disable" anything. It adds WHERE clause to SELECT statement. By default, if you don't code anything additional, data block's query execution acts as if
select * from your_table
has been ran. DEFAULT_WHERE "converts" it to
select * from your_table
where transaction_type = 'sale'
(just as an example). Therefore, it doesn't affect COLUMNS, but ROWS.

Now, rethink everything that's been said here along with what you want to do and try to compose a new question, but now use correct terminology.
