Not ideal, but forcing a reset of each item's status using MSTAT% function results in the items being visible, so I have work around.

Hi Is there a minimum row height for dynamic application sub windows? The first row of the application sub window was set to 4 and the remaining rows 10. The first row is blank, I'm not trying to put text in that is too tall, but following the MAWDRAW the menu is blank. Hitting items results in the ...

That works fine for the window size. I want the size of one or more of the application sub windows. For PVAL to work with RDPT I'm pretty sure the pointer needs to be IN the sub window and I can't guarantee that and don't want to force a pointer position change just so it will work.

Thanks for the replies. Yes, I've read Norman's document, but that's more a getting started guide...and this is beyond that...unless there's another document I've not seen. I've tried PVAL, but as Tobias says, that relies on an event. I've tried to force one in my code, but it wasn't really what I w...

Hi,
Is there a simple way to get the size of an application window in code? I know it's initial size but I want to call a function to get the size after a window is re-sized.

I need this to work in both SBASIC and QLIB.

With the lack of response, I get the feeling that DBAS is not well used or understood. I've got around that problem now (can't remember what I did...) but now I've hit a real show stopper. Following the insert of a new record, a re-read of a selection of records (not including the inserted one) give...

Sorry, should have said that this was on QPCII 4.0.1.5 SMSQE 3.18
