CLEAR statement applies to FILL-IN?s
INTRODUCTION:
============
This kbase is intended to clarify to which widgets does the CLEAR
statement appliers to and why.
If you intend to use the CLEAR statement to clean the widgets you may
define on your frame, this only applies to FILL-IN widgets. Non of
the other widgets will respond to this events.
PROCEDURAL APPROACH:
===================
If you define a variable as FILL-IN, EDITOR, COMBO-BOX, TOGLE-BOX,
or RADIO-SET, you may want in a certain point reset their values.
You may use the CLEAR statement but only will apply to the FILL-IN.
On the cases of COMBO-BOX, TOGLE-BOX, or RADIO-SET it will be more
resonable to initialize this widgets than assign a blank value.
On the case of the EDITOR there is a workaround:
widget-editor:SCREEN-VALUE = "".
