Titcol

Titcol allows to assign dynamically titles in the columns of a grid present on a screen.

This function is only usable in Classic pages related code and is deprecated for code running in version 7 mode.

Syntax

 Titcol [ABBREVIATION]BOTTOM_PAGE LIST_OF_STRING_EXPRESSIONSTitcol [ABBREVIATION]BOTTOM_PAGE STRING_EXPRESSION For COLUMN_NAME

ABBREVIATION is the abbreviation of the corresponding mask.BOTTOM_PAGE is the name of the "bottom-page" variable in the mask (the variable associated to a grid that stores the number of lines present).LIST_OF_STRING_EXPRESSIONS is a list of string expressions representing the titles of the consecutive columns in the grid.COLUMN_NAME is the name of the variable whose title should be changed

The syntax 1 allows to define titles for the first N columns (only the columns visible or enterable are concerned).
The syntax 2 allows to define the title for a given column identified by its name.

Description and comments

Titcol is used to change dynamically the title of columns in a grid.

Comment

When a mask includes a grid where the column titles are evaluated, the use of Titcol is automatically done in a generated script called in the "before-field" action of the bottom-page variable.

If the global variable GORITITCOL is set to "1", the corresponding script is not called.
