PreviousWin (Function)

In french: FenPrécédente

Identifies the window that was in edit before the window that is currently in edit (for the same project). This function is used for modeless windows.

Reminder: The current window is the window in focus: this window is in input mode and its title bar is active.

You can also use PreviousPage.

Example

// Nom de la fenêtre précédente
ResFenPrécédente = PreviousWin()

Syntax

<Result> = PreviousWin()

<Result>: Character string

Name of the window that was previously in edit,
Alias of the window that was previously in edit (if this alias was specified when the window was opened).
Empty string ("") if no previous window exists, or if the window previously edited was closed before calling PreviousWin.

Remarks

Uppercase/Lowercase characters

The window name can be written in uppercase or lowercase characters. The "~=" operator (loose equality) should be used to compare the window name returned by PreviousWin with a hard-coded window name.

For example:

IF PreviousWin() ~= "SaisieFenêtre" THEN
	...
END
