hi Antonio,

when talk about "Multi-TAB" i mean TFolder() and (Add)Item of it

i can dynamic AddItem() and want to "save" it when exit App.

i do "load" CONFIG.INI at Start and "write" before exit App

but how to use [TAB1] , [TAB2] ... no Idea how to use it

in my Sample it is for Left and Right but i can open n-Dim on Right while have only 1 x Left ...

so i need a new Concept how to "save" and "restore" TAB ( TFolder() )

greeting,

Jimmy

Here you have a working example, please review Class TFolder Method AddItem() for more parameters to use:

Code (fw): Select all Collapse

#include "FiveWin.ch"

function Main()

    local oDlg, oFld

    DEFINE DIALOG oDlg SIZE 400, 400

    @ 1, 1 FOLDER oFld OF oDlg PROMPTS "" SIZE 190, 180 

    ACTIVATE DIALOG oDlg CENTER ;
        ON INIT ( oFld:DelItemPos( 1 ), oFld:AddItem( "One" ), oFld:AddItem( "Two" ), oFld:AddItem( "Three" ) )

return nil

regards, saludos

hi Antonio,

thx for Answer.

i got AddItem() "dynamic" working which also need to "fill" Grid after Create()

your Sample show how "Static" Item can be used at ON INIT but i can have n-Dim Items

as i want to "save" last Session i ask which is the best Way to "load" it again at Start.

CONFIG.INI

Pro : can be edit using Notepad

Contra : might be very "big"

DBF

Pro : not limited in Size (for this Project)

Contra : need DBU to "Edit"

XML & Co ... not sure if i will be "better" for what i need

greeting,

Jimmy

I Prefer DBF and use Xbrowser("dbffile") to edit. No dbu needed.
With dbf you can organise, filter etc... the settings like you want.
Just my way of setting things up.

Code (fw): Select all Collapse

  XBROWSER "STATES.DBF" COLUMNS "NAME" FASTEDIT ;
   SETUP (  oBrw:bRecSelData     := { || FIELD->CODE }, ;
            oBrw:bRecSelHeader   := "CODE", ;
            oBrw:nRecSelWidth    := "CODE" )

Code (fw): Select all Collapse

  netopen("brwsetup","Code","TempXb")
  select TempXB
  set filter to brwnaam = cData
  tempXB->(dbgotop())
  hBrw:= FW_RecToHash()  // Start using Hash for all system variables  // or start using a tDatabase opject so that you can use this.

   cDbf = alltrim(hBrw["database"])  //  all var's are in this single Hash and can be used easy with names   ? hBrw["Path"] etc...

You know how to use them. I do it like above.

Dear Jimmy,

You could save the info into a json file and later on reload the json as a hash and use it to properly built it

You can use XBrowser( hInfo ) to easily edit it
