GOAL:
How to programmatically CHECK/UNCHECK a TOGGLE-BOX in the ABL
GOAL:
How to change the value of a TOGGLE-BOX widget programmatically
FACT(s) (Environment):
All Supported Operating Systems
Products / Versions
FIX:
The CHECKED attribute of a TOGGLE-BOX widget is akin to the SCREEN-VALUE attribute of other presentation widgets in the ABL. In order to change the value of a TOGGLE-BOX widget programmatically one would set its CHECKED attribute to either a TRUE or FALSE value.
Like other presentation widgets in the ABL you should be aware that programmatically changing its value does not force the execution of the VALUE-CHANGED, ENTRY, LEAVE or other like events. If the programmer needs these events to fire after the value is changed then they need to be fired manually.
e.g.
TOGGLE-1:CHECKED IN FRAME {&FRAME-NAME} = (NOT TOGGLE-1:CHECKED).
APPLY "VALUE-CHANGED" TO TOGGLE-1 IN FRAME {&FRAME-NAME}.
