mass update vs global values

Hi -

I would like to know whether programming in a mass update spec can access the global values stated in the program layout of the form.

Thanks.

Hello Spencer,

If you mean Global Values as in GlobalValue() and @GlobalValue(), then Yes.

If you mean Global Values as in Variables declared in the Global Code section of your form, then I believe the answer is No.

We actually covered this briefly in the Beginning Programming class. We used GlobalValue and @GlobalValue to set the OrderNumber on the form we programmed.  Take a look at page 34 of your coursebook.  Smiley

Simple way to check this out Spencer .....
Make a report that prints out the GlobalValue("Whatever")
Just put in a header, shouldn't even need any elements.
