FACT(s) (Environment):
Dynamics 2.0a
SYMPTOM(s):
Link widget of a dynamic lookup showing first character of the database field value when is VIEWed-AS TEXT.
The format of a widget associated to a database character field is set to display only one character, i.e. x(1)
Dynamics 2.0A02
CAUSE:
The format of the linked widget is set to X(1) even if in the repository is large enough to display the data
CAUSE:
Bug# 20030808-043
FIX:
Upgrade to Dynamics 2.1A or OpenEdge 10.0A.
As a workaround, add a data logic procedure to your dynamic viewer and create initializeObject with the following code:
/* datalogic procedure for dyn viewer */
PROCEDURE initializeObject :
RUN SUPER. /* this will be the default initializeObject of the viewer */
DEF VAR vh AS HANDLE NO-UNDO.
vh = DYNAMIC-FUNCTION( 'widgetHandle' IN TARGET-PROCDURE, "fiState" ).
IF VALID-HANDLE( vh ) THEN DO:
MESSAGE vh:FORMAT.
ASSIGN vh:FORMAT = "X(20)".
RUN displayRecord IN TARGET-PROCDURE.
END.
END PROCEDURE.
