Search-Text-In-View

As soon as this property is set to a value, the Grid control is searched for that value, according to the options set in the Search-Options property.

The search begins at the cell identified by the X and Y properties. Cells that are hidden due to Row-Hiding and Column-Hiding are not considered by the search.

If the search succeeds, the X and Y properties are updated to match the coordinates of the cell that contains the searched text.

Unlike Search-Text, Search-Text-In-View looks for the text in the Grid view instead of looking in the model so, if the user reordered or sorted the columns, the search will be performed on the new Grid layout.

After the search, one of the following values is returned:

0	Search failed. The X and Y properties are left unchanged.
1	Search succeeded.
2	Search succeeded, but it reached the end (or the top) of the Grid control and continued from the top (or the end).

 

Example - Search for the string "Phoenix" and advise the user if the string is not found

modify screen-2-gr-1 search-text-in-view "Phoenix" giving search-result.  if search-result = 0     display message "Not found" icon mb-error-icon  end-if.
