GOAL:
How to suppress the display of the data dictionary defined field help text in the window's status line using 4GL?
FIX:
Use the 'NO-HELP' option of the frame phrase to suppress the display of the field's data dictionary defined help text in status line of the window.
For example running the code:
FIND FIRST Customer.
UPDATE Customer.Name.
If the ?Name? field has ?Please Enter a Customer Name? defined in the data
dictionary as its help text string, then this help string would show up in the
window's status area.
Use the NO-HELP option to suppress the display of the data dictionary defined ?Please Enter a Customer Name? message in the windows status line:
FIND FIRST Customer.
UPDATE Customer.Name WITH NO-HELP.
Running the modified code above will suppress the data dictionary defined ?Please Enter a Customer Name? message. The default ?Enter data or press ESC to end? help message will be displayed instead.
Use the STATUS statement to suppress both the data dictionary defined ?Please Enter a Customer Name? message and the default ?Enter data or press ESC to end? help message:
STATUS INPUT OFF.
FIND FIRST Customer.
UPDATE Customer.Name WITH NO-HELP.
