Is there a way besides WorkArea->Fieldname??

Post by Anonymous »

Just curious... Is there now, or will there ever be, a way besides WorkArea->Fieldname??

I really like the WorkArea.Fieldname syntax that VFP has better than ->.

Matt,
In one of the next builds we will implement WorkArea.Field, but like I already said in another thread, it will be difficult to do it in an optimized way, because Customer.LastName could mean using the LastName property of the undeclared Customer variable or the LastName field in the Customer workarea. The Alias (->) operator does not have this problem.
