Hi all,

I'm new to OpenInsight & AREV.

I'm trying to do something simple and I'm struggling to find information in the documentation.

I have a form with a EDITLINE control on.

I have a button with the following code:

---

$Insert Msg_Equates

  Declare function Get_Property

  FromBranch=Get_Property(@WINDOW:"EDITLINE_FROMBRANCH","TEXT")

  Msg(@window, FromBranch)

RETURN 0

---

All I've get is an empty MessageBox - I'm sure I've made some fundamental error.

Any help is appropriate.

you have

FromBranch=Get_Property(@WINDOW:"EDITLINE_FROMBRANCH","TEXT")

should be

FromBranch=Get_Property(@WINDOW:".EDITLINE_FROMBRANCH","TEXT")

you are missing the delimiter "." between the @window variable and the control name.
