Usage

If you want to retrieve the ObjectData blob value of an OLE control during the processing of this event, you must post a user event back to the control or you generate a runtime error.

Examples

In this example, a table in a database tracks changes of OLE objects; when the user saves an Excel spreadsheet in an OLE control, this code puts the current date in a DataWindow so that the database table can be updated:

long ll_row
// Find the row with information for the Excel file
ll_row = dw_1.Find("file_name = 'expenses.xls'", &
   1, 999)
 
IF ll_row > 0 THEN
   // Make the found row current
   dw_1.SetRow(ll_row)
 
   // Put today's date in the last_updated column
   dw_1.Object.last_updated[ll_row] = Today( )
 
   // Update and refresh the DataWindow
   dw_1.Update( )
   dw_1.Retrieve( )
ELSE
   MessageBox("Find", "No row found")
END IF
