A little less busy now so I can look at my app some more. As you mat recall I was asking about data persistence.
Thank you to the additional people who welcomed me. I contrast this with the time I asked a question on Usenet about a scripting language I was learning and the first reply told me I was awful (true, which is why I was asking questions) and to come back and only ask questions when I have the script I posted working. As for contributing brains. Yeah... I supposed I could fake that part for awhile. Just do not ask for kidneys as you will get nowhere there. Klaus thank you for mentioning closefield. Did not notice it before and it seems like it would be just the thing for me. The data is simple, so I think I will start out by trying to save it all in an array and doing so every time there is an entry or change to an entry using closefield. And that brings me to today's follow up question. In some cases I have a button that when pressed put the time inside the neighbouring text field. So when a plane lands I pressed the button labelled "ATA" and it puts the current time into a text field next to the ATA button. How would that count as focus? Would having the app place something into the field put focus on the field? What I am really wondering is when it comes to the buttons can I leave them be because the text fields have code to save their info when the focus leaves or should I add code to the buttons to tell them after placing the info into the text field, save same info to an array? Thanks. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
