Description
Returns or sets the position (starting with 1) of the selected position in an edit table or list box.
Usage
selecteditem = Get_Property (objectname, "SELPOS")
oldselection = Set_Property (objectname, "SELPOS", newselecteditem)
Remarks
Values passed in Set_Property are:
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| selecteditem | Edit table: Column:@FM:Row. |
| Combo and list boxes: ordinal position of row(s). | |
| Use -1 to indicate the last item in the list. |
Get_Property returns column:@FM:row for active cell in an edit table, or selected item(s) for combo and list boxes. A multiple-selection list box returns an @FM-delimited list.
Set_Property sets the active cell for an edit table, or selects the row(s) for combo and list boxes. For a multiple-selection list box, the current selection list is toggled with the list that is passed.
Note: If an edit table is protected the column position returned will be 1. Use NOTIFYPOS to determine which cell was selected.
