Status Bar

[Vanguarda]

Hello HMG Users,

I have a form main with a StatusBar. when i try this command:
Main.StatusBar.Item(1) := " Text of status bar"

in my module main.prg, work fine. But when i try in other module it don´t work.

My form main is called in main.prg module.

When i try in another module, i get a message of error in line of command (Main.StatusBar.Item(1)) erro like "."

what´s going on?
Anybody help me?

PS: Sorry my bad english

Did you try to declare window MAIN in other module:

DECLARE WINDOW MAIN

before line that changes status line?

Hello Marek,

i don´t understand your question

To refer a window in a different prg file, we have to use "declare window windowname" command before referring it. That is what Marek says.

Hi Paulo


In addition to DEFINE WINDOW, we have a DECLARE WINDOW statement:

According to HMG Documentation:

DECLARE WINDOW : Declares a window name..

Syntax : DECLARE WINDOW <WindowName>

A window must be declared using this command, if you need to refer to it prior
its definition in code, or when you refer to it in a different .prg file from
the one it was defined using semi-oop syntax.
