input variable on screen

Former Member

Hi,

I'm creating a screen with the screen painter and I want to add an input field (where the user can select a date). I'd like to have this input field default to the date of today. So, I created a data variable in the main program. I though that in my screen I could link the input field with this variable, but I don't know how. Can anyone help me out on this. This field will later on be needed to send to a a function module as well.

thanks,

Tom

hi Tom,

when you open the screen,

look at the top right hand corner of that screen.

there will be three buttons, just put the cursor on the buttons to know about them them

then select the button, <b>select from program</b>

then select ur date variable and click on ok

this will be reflected on the screen
