I've used OR_View in a number of apps.

I was wondering if it was possible to get the results that or_view

displays so I can display in my own form editbox?

This way I wouldn't have to recreate the wheel.

Is this clear as mud?

Well essentially as far as we are able to tell OR_VIEW just uses the callback functionality of RLIST to populate a window so could you not just use this?

I'm not sure I follow you.

So, doing the call to RLIST would return the

results to where so I could put them in an

edit box?

Thanks.

Bruce,

It's not properly docced. I don't remember if it's been described on the discussion lists.

Anyway - here's something I got to work with a little bit of trial and error:

function Test_Rlist_Callback( Arg )

$insert Rlist_Equates

declare subroutine Rlist

CallbackFunc=TEST_CALLBACK"

/* insert your favourite OpenList LIST statement here */

RlistScript=LIST TOPO JUSTLEN 4 TOPONAVN JUSTLEN 20 BY TOPONAVN WITH TOPONAVN ] 'A'"

UserArg="

RList( RlistScript, TARGET_CALLBACK$, CallbackFunc, UserArg, 0 )

if Get_Status() then

	debug

end

return 0

function Test_Callback( Arg1, Arg2, Arg3 )

/* admittedly this callback function of mine doesn't do much,

   but the debug statement gives you an opportunity

   to inspect the arguments.

   i think the first one tells you what kind the

   current line is - header, normal text, or whatever.

   the second contains the line itself - note the tabs.

   the third was null in my experiments,

   but seemed to be necessary */

debug

/* your callback function must return true$ - if everything is ok.

 return false$ if you want to abort the process */

return 1

If you want to run a predefined report you can use the UserArg parameter instead of RlistScript. Something like this (according to the Inet_Rlist function source):

userArg ="

userArg=ReportName

userArg=ReportArgs

Good luck!
