How to generate a FAST TRACK form for use in Results
The Results ADMIN option allows you do define user defined queries and
use other (non Results generated) forms in the queries. The .f or fo
rm file may have been created in the 4GL or perhaps in Fast Track. If
you generate a .f from the Fast Track screen painter fro use with Res
ults, you'll need to adhere to the following rules:
The form must call upon one an only one database file.
You must use an editor to edit the Fast Track form created with COMMAN
D GENERATE. To the .f (form) file you need to add:
1. The keyword FORM
2. A period at the very end of the text (bottom of file)
3. A frame name (to be later referenced in Results)
4. A WITH FRAME statement similar to one generated by a Results for
m. (i.e. WITH FRAME frame-name TITLE qbf-title COLUMN 1 row minimum(qb
f-level * 2 + 1,screen-lines - 4).
5. Be sure the from does not exceed 18 rows down and 76 columns acr
oss
Now you can reference this form in Results ADMIN Update a Query form -
enter the form name, and choose the fields when prompted.
