Manipulating formatted display controls programmatically

Overview

WEBDEV allows you to manipulate a formatted display control programmatically. To do so, use the variable of the formatted display control in the code.

The variable of the formatted display control corresponds to the name of the formatted display control. The variable type depends on the control type (numeric, text, currency, etc.).

Initializing a formatted display control (server code)

To initialize a formatted display control, a simple assignment of the control variable is sufficient. This initialization must be done in server code. For example:

// Initialize the formatted display control named "FSTC_Date"
FSTC_Date = 19990506 
// You can also use Date.Value = "19990506"

Note:: You can also use the Value or Caption properties.

Retrieving the value of a formatted display control (server code)

To retrieve the content of a formatted display control (static or dynamic) in a server code:

perform a simple assignment. For example:
```
CurrentDispContent = FSTC_FORMATTED1
```
handle the formatted display control directly. For example:
```
Info(LIBF_FORMATE1)
```
use the Value or Caption properties.
