Re: Dual subfile "MOUBTN"

See if this solution comes near your needs.

It creates a new subfile for the second window, but I see no reason why your
scenario wouldn't work just fine.  Remember, the arrow keys still work, and
the spacebar, so using MOUBTN does not require a mouse to function.

Subject: Dual subfile "MOUBTN"
 
Before I start coding....
 
I have a "desire" to create a screen with 2 subfiles,
the top subfile, when an record is selected, is removed
from the top subfile, and written to the bottom subfile...
 
The order selected is very important, and it appears that
MLTCHCFLD only returns the items selected, but I cannot
extract the order they were selected.
 
I am thinking that I will need to use the MOUBTN keyword,
and take action (readc top subfile, dlt top subfile record,
write bottom subfile record, redisplay screen), when the
mouse button is pressed....
 
 
 
Has someone done this?
