Getting FocusedRow.Record.Tag value

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi all,How do I get from a ReportControl after it has just been loaded in a VB6 Form_Load event, the first rows record tag value?

I am using the ReportControl.FocusedRow.Record.Tag method in the ReportControl_SelectionChanged event to get the record ID. But it hasn't had focus yet, so there is no ID from the Tag.

In this situation, the user hasn't clicked onto the ReportControl yet. The first thing they do is click on the CommandBar "Edit" button, expecting to open the record detail form. In the record Tag value is the ID to the record to open. Since this event hasn't fired, I don't have the ID.

Now that I'm thinking about this, should I put the ReportControl.FocusedRow.Record.Tag event in the Commandbars_Execute event? But I would have to force to find the focused row, right?

Not sure on this.

Anybody, got ideas or ways to handle this?

	Hi Mark, You could use FocusChanging event for this, everytime user clicks or uses arrow key to select another row, this event fires. Now, to get first ID on startup you need to change focus on another row because FocusChange event doesn't fire at startup (row is selected but nothing more) for example: wndReportControl.Navigator.MoveToRow 1 wndReportControl.Navigator.MoveToRow 0 and now FocusChange event fires and you are able to get value from first row. Hope this helps
