PA_QueryDialog (defaultTable)
Parameter | Type | Description | |
defaultTable | short | Default table |
Description
The routine PA_QueryDialog displays the standard Query Dialog for defaultTable. If the user fills the search area and clicks OK, 4D executes the query.
As the routine does not return any information on the query result, the plug-in should check the "OK" global variable (see the example given in the "Building a query with the API" chapter).
This is like the QUERY command when it is used with a table as parameter. See the 4th Dimension Language reference manual for more information.
Example
Query dialog on table 1:
PA_Query(1); if(GetOK()) // the user did not cancel the operation { if(PA_RecordsInSelection(1) == 0L) PA_Alert("\pNo records found"); else /* . . . do something . . . */ }
