Sirs, a friend asked me how to position under program-control the rows displayed by input-array. His text: >Problem: concerning informix 4gl; "input array" command >The use of "input array from a screen array without defaults" offers a good >opportunity to facilate a lot of input, update problems. > >However this command is limited so far as the user has always to start with >the first array-line, as arr curr() is 1 at the beginning of the input ses- >sion. The user has to search for the array-line he wants to update, although >he (or the program) may know in some cases the special array-line number. > >Therefore the question: Is there a possibility to define input array from >a screen array starting at ... (number), or is it possible to change >arr curr() value by a command? I don't know an answer. Is there a solution?
