Dear All,
I wonder about this coding (A and B) structure different that I put in a commandbutton as follows:
coding A:
record2.SETCURRENTKEY(“fieldx”,record2.“fieldx”);
record2.SETRANGE(“fieldy”,“fieldy”::rr);
record2.SETRANGE(record.“fieldz”,“w”);
FORM.RUNMODAL(FORM::“UUU”,record2);
coding B:
CurrForm.SETSELECTIONFILTER(record1);
How to differentiate them…?
I would welcome to receive your answers. Thanks in advance.
Rgds,

The codings hev completely different meanings and cannot really be compared.
Coding A defines a filtered view on the record2 table shown by form UUU.
So form UUU will only show the records you filtered for.
Coding B will return the (multiple) selected records of the form and apply a filter for only those on Record1.
Example: Form is showing the items 1,2,3,4,5 and you are selecting 2 and 5. After calling CurrForm.SETSELECTIONFILTER(record1);, the record1 qould contain your items 2 and 5 only.
Dear Thomas and all,
tks a lot for your reply. It means that coding A only shows one line in the other form (UUU) according to the record there. but coding B can be more than one line. But how it works…? do I need to create additional coding to make it work…? for example CU, table or form, where will I put it, in the Global or Local…? Are there many parameters, variables (in Global or Local), functions, return values…?
Could you give me a sample of the coding…? For example, I have a table R consists of header A and line B but the header table and line table are different, I create a form C consists of tablebox, tabcontrol and frame with source table is the header A, then I want to use setselectionfilter(record1 = the header A), to transfer to a form D whose sourcetable is a table E (no header and no line table), do I need to create coding anymore like what I mentioned in paragraph one ?
Pls let me know your answer. I expect it so much

FORM.RUN(FORM::“form A”,formA);
Using the above, setselectionfilter doesn’t work good.
Pls let me know your answer. I expect it so much

Why would you transfer the Header A to the form D if that is not header nor line. What is the connection between table A and table E ?
Tks again for your reply but I expect your reply in my inbox. I want that the data in header and item in the line transferred automatically to form D that it built from a table D. I set fields in the table D connects to table A and table A’s line. Like purchase order has purchase header and purchase line and its data transferred or filled to a certain table/form (in this case table D) by using command button from a form G that is source table is table A, how to do it then…?.

I still have a problem to really understand what you want to do.
Do you want to “Prefill” fields in the table D with values from table A and then add some additional information manually in form G ?
Dear Thomas,
No, I don’t want to prefill and adding manually. I will repeat or reexplain and just forget the old question, what I wanna do as follow:
Table A : header
Table B : line and it will be a subform sourcetable with the header is table A
Form C : have sourcetable table B
Table D : consists of fields that have tablerelation and flowfields directly to table A, B and F
Form E : it’s table D’s form. form D’s sourcetable is table D
Form F : it’s sourcetable is table G
Table G : consists of some fields (it’s a matrix form (date and item in the line it can be like production forecasting form))
Table G contains a field that I want it to be filled automatically by the system to table Ds’ field but not directly from the field but there is a command button, I just only select the date I want that it’s also be recorded at the table D (e.g. field x and field y), because the fields have tablerelation to table F. The table B is a line (e.g. like purchase line). The item is inserted in the line. Form C will display all headers (table A). Form C can be considered as same as production order status change form. I want to move some lines in form C to form D using setselectionfilter. After that, the field x and y will be filled automatically after I go to form E to all lines that have been selected there.
I hope it can be more clear but if not allow me to send e-mail to you. tks for your kind attention to me, I am indebted so much.
Rgds,
Mark
