Version 9 Form Caption

Kevin Manuel

Has anyone found a way to return the FormCaption property in a field or calculated label? FormName is available in the ProcessContext but not FormCaption.

 

In Version 7x the FormName was all that was available and it allowed spaces in the name. The value of the FormName was used to display as a title in the header of a form. Now the FormName is the ID and only allows certain characters. The FormCaption is needed to display the correct title.

 

Adding the FormCaption to the ProcessContext would be a requested enhancement and would resolve the issue.

Good Point.  That does seem to be missing from ProcessContext...I agree that it would be very helpful to have.  In the meantime, this should do the trick-

 

SelectSql(

new MetastormDefault(),"SELECT eFolderPage.eCaption FROM eFolderPage WHERE eFolderPage.eMapName = @map AND eFolderPage.eFormName = @form",SQLArg("@map",ProcessContext.ProcessName),SQLArg("@form",ProcessContext.FormName)).Text
