Pano6 - Learning to avoid the clipboard

[gary]

@billfew

Window "Membership File:Youth/Children Choir"
Field "ID Number"
Copy
Window "TEST:TRIP"
Field "BID01"
Paste

As long as both files are set to the proper record, in Panorama 6 you could simply use:

Window "TEST:TRIP"
ID01=grabdata("Membership File",«ID Number»)

while in Panorama X the grabdata( function has been changed to fieldvalue(:

Window "TEST:TRIP"
ID01=fieldvalue("Membership File",«ID Number»)

or alternately:

setactivedatabase "TEST"
ID01=fieldvalue("Membership File",«ID Number»)
setactivedatabase ""
