[GUI version only, Interactive Edition and above]

A Field (not a control!) changed its value, because the associated Control was edited by the user or the content of any associated Control was changed by code.

This event is very interesting, because a Field will change its value each time the user makes a change. Evaluating this event means, that your application is informed about every single keystroke or mouse-click, which modifies a Control's content.

This is one of the few events where CloseDoc() may be called while processing the event.

The event is not fired, if you set the value of a Field by code.

public void AfterFieldChange(

VPEFieldEvent e

)

VPEFieldEvent e

The VPE field event is defined as:

public class VPEFieldEvent extends java.util.EventObject {

private TVPEField VpeField;

 

public TVPEField getVpeField() {

  return VpeField;

 }

 

public VPEFieldEvent(VpeControl source, TVPEField VpeField) {

  super(source);

  this.VpeField = VpeField;

 }

}

 

VpeField is the Field object that fired the event

Remarks:

If you change the value of a Control by code, the AfterControlChange event is not fired. But if the Control is associated with a Field, the event AfterFieldChange is fired.

Vice versa, if you change the value of a Field by code, the AfterFieldChange event is not fired, but any Controls associated with the Field will fire the event AfterControlChange.
