I'm trying to make some checkes before calling to session defined as Print Bind Type in form command.

After pressing the print icon i can find myself at

choice.print.data:
before.choice:
but never at
choice.whinh9999m999:
before.choice:
More then this: for sessions defined in form commands as Session Bind Type i cannot get the pointer at
choice.whinh9999m999:
before.choice:

What i'm doing wrong?

Hello,


BaanERP Programmers Guide

4GL choice sections

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
You use choice sections to program actions that you want to be executed when standard commands are activated or ended. Choice sections consist of a main section and a subsection. The main section specifies the standard command for which the actions must be executed. The subsections specify when the actions must be executed.

Main section
choice.<standard command>:
The subsections associated with this main section are executed for the specified standard command. You use the Standard Commands (ttadv3110s000) session to select the standard commands for a session. A list of standard commands appears at the end of this help topic.

Subsections
before.choice:
The actions programmed in this subsection are executed immediately before the specified command is executed. You can use this subsection, for example, to test data before the command process continues. You can use the choice.again() function to stop the command.

on.choice:
The actions programmed in this subsection are executed when the specified command is activated. These actions are executed instead of the standard action associated with the command. This subsection is available for the following commands only:

print.data
run.job
global.delete
global.copy
bms
all commands in type 4 programs (except modify.set, restart.input, end.program, abort.program)
after.choice:
The actions programmed in this subsection are executed immediately after the specified command has been executed. This subsection is not available for the end.program and abort.program commands.

Example
choice.first.view:
after.choice:
execute(first.set)

Standard commands
The following table lists the available standard commands and the types of program in which the various choice subsections can be programmed for each command.
