Hi all
We have created a template form. Now based upon this form, we want to
generate more forms.
Our pursual leads us to use object groups and object library, so that
if we make any changes in our template form, those will be reflected in
all those froms which have sub-classed them from template library.
This is what we have done.
- We created an object group named Toolbar in our template form, in
this object V dragged the following objetcs
- Form Level Triggers
- Alerts
- Toolbar DataBlock
- Toolbar Canvas
- Program Units
- Visual Attributes
- We created an Object Lib and dragged OBJECT GROUP named Toolbar to
the TAB of Object Lib. We named this Library Tools.
- So far so good.
- This is what we were expecting that we will drag that object group
to new form and subclassed it there, and we will be home free. Not so
fast, When we dragged OBJECT GROUP to the new form module the TOOLBAR
Data Block didn't contain any items of that block and also Program
Units were not properly sub-classed (i.e there were no red-arrows on
the program units icons). we tried our level best but were not able to
acheive the required results.
- Then we dragged individual items into Tools object Library and sub-
classed them into new module.
- This seems to be working.
- But when we closed either object lib or the sub-classed form, the
form starts complaining that it can't load the subclassed
components like canvad and toolbar buttons etc.
- The link is there, but all the sub-classed components in the new
form have lost there inherited properties from the toolbar.
We have not moved any of the Library or Form from the originally saved
Directory locations.
Please guide what to do. Sorry for the botheration, but We will highly
appreciate if you can extend some help.
Looking forward to your response
Regards
