I'm building a screen to act as a generic browser for data which will 
have a TDHiBrow browse as well as a couple of tdSle so users can type in;
1) a string to use for seeking the current index
2) a string to set a filter on the current index record and the next 
500-100 records following on from that.

For 1) above I want to allow a user to progressively enter a string and 
have the browse box update to reflect any matches for the string typed 
so far.

How can I have some sort of callback or routine that does this from a tdSle?

Cheers

Phil Jackson

Hi Phil,

Some suggestions:

Concerning the index selection, you can use the bValid callback of the 
tdXget().
For the incremental search, you could see how this is done in 
tdIsearch() and replicate the code in "your" tdcHibrow class.

A second possible solution is to create your own tdIsearch() function 
by using the original one where you add a tdXget() with the bValid 
callback (for your index). But this one might be more tricky.

Best regards,
Raymond

Well, you need to replace tdSle by tdXget of course.

Hi Raymond

Thanks for the suggestions.

I have the incremental search now working with the browse and can now 
add the other touches I want. I also noticed that the event loop I had 
copied from the TD example was concerting asc characters to alt keys so 
I was able to fix my digits only problem also.

Many thanks!

Thanks for the feed back. I am sure Clayton would be happy to see your 
solution.
