Hi there

I have to develop some sessions in Baan IV.
I have to display some data sets and when the user click in one row the script have to identify on which displayfield the user has clicked.
By this way I want to let the program decide which subsession have to opened by clicking in a dataset.

Normaly i would use an input field. So i can use the event "before.input". but in a display field will this event ignored. But the layout of an input field suggests the user, that she or he can manipulate data.

Is there a workaround to solve this dilemma?

Thanx a lot

I think you will need to make them input fields so the user can click onto the field. That way you can use the before.input like you stated. The only option I think you have to have on the form is "modify" - you do not have to allow them to save/update the data. I think your users will soon learn that by clicking in a field activates a sub-session and does not allow them to make any changes in the form. I use this in one session to make them generate a new project number. The minute they click insert the project field is hit, it auto zooms to a sub-session, they enter data on the sub-session, click continue, returns to the calling program and I fill in the new project number. This way they never get to free form type in a new project number.
