How to init a "M" var?

[ShumingWang]

Hi!
c1:=space(1)
? valtype(c1) // "C"

How to
m1:=xxx
?valtype(m1) // "M"

Thanks a lot!

Mr. Shuming:

As I know you can initiate the var as an empty string for a memo field, the trick
is the GET

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

    oEmp:MSG := ""
...
...
...
...
            REDEFINE GET aGets[49] VAR oEmp:MSG ID 402 OF oFld:aDialogs[4] UPDATE;
                MEMO ;
                MESSAGE "Mensaje que llevará el correo"
 

I hope these is what you are looking for.

Thank you for your reply.
use test2
? valtype(test2->a2) // "M"

m1:=test20>a2
? m1 // "C"

In xbrowse--- xcolumn-- method edit() ,
if ValType( uValue ) $ 'CM' ...
::oEditGet := TMultiGet():New(.."

The uvalue must be "M" , I should fund other way to solve this.

TKS!

M type is only for memo fields, as far as I know.
