Using a set message to oWnd with a variable in the message. When the variable changes the message changes however when I mouse over the message the variable reverts back to the old variable. When I no longer mouse over it the goes to the new variable. How do I prevent it from reverting to the old variable when I mouse over the message?
Harvey,
This is a strange issue. I have dealt with it before and I never quite understood it. There actually two messages--I think one is supposed to be a temp message that is displayed during an activity, and the other is the previous message which is then displayed again after the activity.
The class is stange in that it contains two message vars, ::cMsg and ::cMsgDef. Here is how I got it to work:
oWnd:oMsgBar:cMsgDef:="xxx"
oWnd:oMsgBar:setMsg("yyy")
Regards,
James
SET MESSAGE of oWnd1 TO "" COLOR CLR_WHITE,CLR_BLUE NOINSET //DATE CLOCK
oWnd1:oMsgBar:DateOn()
oWnd1:oMsgBar:clockOn()
oWnd1:oMsgBar:cMsgDef := "YOU ARE WORKING ON ENTITY NO. " +SUBSTR(GLD,5,3)+", "+ALLTRIM(MCOMPNAME)
oWnd1:oMsgBar:setMsg("")Harvey,

So, it sounds like there may be a bug when using themes?

I assume so. as soon as 2007 is added to the set message it reverts to the old variable on the mouse over.
#include 'fivewin.ch'
function Main()
local ownd
DEFINE WINDOW oWnd
@ 100,40 BUTTON 'ReviseMsg' SIZE 100,30 PIXEL OF oWnd ;
MESSAGE 'Click to change MessageBar Default Message' ;
ACTION ( oWnd:oMsgBar:cMsgDef := 'Revised Message', oWnd:oMsgBar:Refresh() )
SET MESSAGE OF oWnd TO 'Initial Message' 2007
ACTIVATE WINDOW oWnd
return nil
