What is the syntax to pass a key to a template using the Catalyst Command within a program.  I am running the following Command: 

Catalyst("w","Order_Entry"). I would like to pass the key and open the template with the key. Currently, I am using @Recur1 to pass the key.  Also, is it possible to pass a key when calling a window through a Softkey.



Thanks Bruce.

<QUOTE>Bruce,



There are two ways that I use all of the time to do this.  The first is to execute a select statment on the table in questions, generating a one key select list, and then call the window.  This will automatically bring that record up in the window.



The other is to call the window, and then execute a catalyst command for a keyboard (code=K") that consists of the @ID followed by a CR.  This would 'type' the @ID in the key prompt, and then execute a carriage return, effectively bringing up the record.

<QUOTE>Well if it is always a single key with no spaces, the simplest way is to do this:



Catalyst("W", "ORDER_ENTRY ":Key_ID)



If the key can have spaces, or if you want to bring up a browse list, Andrew McAuley reminded me you can use Make.List very effectively as such:



Call Make.List(0, Key_list, "", "") ; * Key_list is @FM delimited

Catalyst("W", "ORDER_ENTRY")
