Re: Recursive procedure mess

Pass two parameters. Or make it a function that returns a value.

Hi all,

I have a client manager procedure that has the client id passed by

reference as an input/output parameter.

This seems to be because the procedure will call a client creation

procedure if the clientId is passed as 0, or a work with clients procedure

if the id is not 0. In the latter case, a list of clients that are related

to the client in the parameter are shown in a subfile. Selecting one of

these relations will call the client manager procedure again, this time

with the relation as the parameter. So when the program returns to the

original instance of the clientmanager, the relation is returned to the

caller instead of the original client.

What can I do? I think I need to be able to pass by value to the second

instance but only if the clientId at the beginning is different from 0. In

that case I need the parameter to be modifiable.
