Language / Tree_view with check_boxes
January 19, 2026, 02:54:56 PM
Is it possible to get a tree_view with check boxes next to the items(branches)?

The manual says something about 'cbx' but it seems to be for Webster starting with version 2023.

Programming / JSON get_num validation

How does GET_NUM(KEY$,validation) work if validation is on?

Do you get an ERROR 11 for a missing key?

Nomads / Report Writer key range

Is there any way to enter a key range in the report writer (other than generating the report from a query)?

Nomads / Re: Pass an argument to a grid cell query
December 16, 2022, 11:48:27 AM
I wanted to limit what shows up in the query based on the value of another column.

That other column only has 2 valid values so I ended up creating two queries and put a different fixed Key Prefix in each.

I read the value of the other column when the query cell gets focus and place the name of the appropriate query in a string variable.

The Preset Value/Expression for the query cell is just equal to the string variable.


I'm surprised that there isn't some easy way to pass an argument to the query. Maybe in Celltag$? I would think that this comes up fairly often.

Is there some way to set up the Pro system so that it behaves as a Base system?

Sometimes I have used a Pro feature without realizing it and I only discover my mistake when the program doesn't work on the client's Base system.

Isn't it already possible to set the color with 'BACKCOLOR$ ?
