Please, give me "For All sFileName"

Hi all,

It is possible to pass the filename as a variable to many WX file handling commands, but not to "For All". Having this possibility would make it possible to make very generic procedures.

I wonder why this is not possible? Maybe it is too difficult for PCsoft to do?

Best regards

Hello Ola

Can you give a specific example of what you are trying to achieve please.

The standard method is to extract a directory list into a string and then work through the string using fExtractPath() to breakout the file name and other pieces.

LFileName is string
LFileList = fListFile(LSrchDir,frRecursive)
// For each file found
FOR EACH STRING LFileName OF LFileList SEPARATED BY CR

Hi Al,

Sorry, I didn't notice your msg earlier.

I'm trying to achieve something like this:

sFile is string = "SOItem" //= Sales order items file 
                       //could also be WOItem = Work order items file etc...

FOR ALL sFile
{sFile + "." + "PRICE",inditem} += 100.00
HModify(sFile)

Best regards
Ola

Hello Ola

I think this syntax will work
{sFile ,indfile} + ".PRICE" += 100.00

Hi Al,

{sFile + "." + "PRICE",inditem} += 100.00 works all right, but

FOR ALL sFile does not, and that is my point here. Neither does

FOR ALL {sFile,indfile}, which also fails.

A variable simply cannot be used as the filename in FOR ALL filename.
Or, if it can, I don't know how.

Best regards
Ola

I wonder whether this has been done in WX24 or WX25...
