NOENTRY attribute
The NOENTRY
attribute prevents data entry in the field during an input dialog.
Syntax
NOENTRY
Usage
Use the NOENTRY
attribute to bypass field input during an INPUT
or INPUT ARRAY
statement.
A NOENTRY
field is like a disabled field, it cannot get the focus.
When compiling a form with a field referencing a SERIAL/BIGSERIAL column in the database schema,
the NOENTRY
attribute is automatically set. However, the attribute will not be set
if the field is defined with a TYPE LIKE
syntax.
When using a WITHOUT DEFAULTS
dialog option, the content of the corresponding
program variable is displayed in the field.
The NOENTRY
attribute does not prevent data entry into a field during a
CONSTRUCT
statement.
Example
EDIT f001 = order.totamount, NOENTRY;
