<Looper>.Modify (Function)

In french: <Zone répétée>.Modifie

Not available

Changes the values of the attributes in a row of a Looper control.

Remark: It is recommended to use <Looper>.ModifyLine. Indeed, <Looper>.ModifyLine allows you to insert:

TAB characters into the attributes/controls.
all types of values into the attributes/controls.

For Looper controls without attributes, it is recommended to directly change the value of the relevant controls. For more details, see "Modifying a Looper control without attributes.

Example

// Modify a row in a Looper control
LOOP_Looper1.Modify(ProductName + TAB + ProductCode, Index)

// Modifies a value in the Looper control at position 12
LOOP_Looper1.Modify(LastName + TAB + FirstName + TAB + ...
PhoneNum + TAB + FaxNum, 12)

Syntax

<Looper control>.Modify(<Value> [, <Index>])

<Looper control>: Control name

Name of the Looper control to be used.

<Value>: Character string

List of modified values. This parameter must have the following format:

<Value 1> + TAB + ... + <Value N>

The different values must be specified in the order of the attributes (Looper control description window).
To specify no value for an attribute, use an empty string ("") or 0 (depending on the type of the attribute).

<Index>: Optional integer

Index of the row to be modified.
If this parameter is not specified, the modification will be performed on the current element.
If <Index> is greater than the number of rows, <Looper>.Modify is equivalent to <Looper>.Add.

Remarks

Use conditions

<Looper>.Modify can be used on:

a Looper control based on a data file,
a Looper control populated programmatically.

This function is not available for Linear Looper controls. This function is available for Looper controls in browser mode only.

This function is available for Looper controls in Ajax mode, Looper controls in classic mode and Linear Looper controls.

<Looper>.Modify can only be used on a Looper control populated programmatically.

Sort

If <Looper>.Modify modifies a sort attribute of the current Looper control, the sort order set with this attribute will be removed.

Handling a binary memo

To modify a binary memo in a Looper control, use <Looper>.ModifyLine.

Modifying a Looper control without attributes

To modify a Looper control without attributes, it is recommended to directly change the value of the relevant controls.

For example:

// Modify the value of controls
// in "LOOP_Looper1" for row 23
LOOP_Looper1[23].LastNameControl = "Hobbes"
LOOP_Looper1[23].FirstNameControl = "Samantha"
