Discussion Topic  RE: [CLOSED] Chaining Question (in WebFOCUS/FOCUS Forum on Focal Point ) by MartinY
The "Add 'All option'" put first option to "All" that is equivalent to pass FOC_NONE or _FOC_NULL to your fex. So depending how you code your fex it will ignore the related WHERE clause. But it will ... ignore the WHERE clause in the fex if no selection is made. But it will populate the chained control...

Discussion Topic  RE: [SOLVED] If statement with an in condition (in WebFOCUS/FOCUS Forum on Focal Point ) by Wep5622
I think a small warning about .QUOTEDSTRING is in order here; don't just blindly apply that everywhere.For starters, if you use that in a variable substitution in a FOCUS WHERE-clause (ie. WHERE MYFIELD EQ &MYVARIABLE.QUOTEDSTRING, the variable-value FOC_NONE (meaning "ignore this line") gets...

Discussion Topic  RE: Wildcard parameter value not returning data. (in WebFOCUS/FOCUS Forum on Focal Point ) by Leah
As TONY A says,Try breaking up the Where statement to two where statements. If you want ALL (FOC_NONE) to work on the STNUMB then you would have just the where with the &STDNUM and then the rest of the selection on the second where to get what you want. Assuming here you want to ignore the STDNUM...

Discussion Topic  RE: [SOLVED] DB2 SQL passthru error (in WebFOCUS/FOCUS Forum on Focal Point ) by Darin Lee
Actually, it DOESN'T ignore the whole statement - it just seems that way. What it ignores is the entire PHYSICAL line of code on which it appears. If the entire WHERE statement appears on the same line, the whole line is ignored. In the case of a compound statement using AND, this could be a bad...

Discussion Topic  RE: Table Prompt Slow for SQL (or date problem for WebFocus)) (in WebFOCUS/FOCUS Forum on Focal Point ) by Mighty Max
I use amper variables all of the time in sql pass thru. But I always SET their values before the sql pass thru. I have found some inconsistency using FOC_NONE however. It does not always ignore the line. I usually comment out the line or skip the line. I am not sure if sxschech was trying to SET...

Discussion Topic  RE: WebFOCUS 8 Migration Testing? (in WebFOCUS/FOCUS Forum on Focal Point ) by David Glick
Tom,If you select the "DOCUMENT" object in the Properties sheet, there is a property called "Ignore Filters". It has a dropdown to choose between _FOC_NULL and FOC_NONE. The DOCUMENT object also has a property called "Title of element" and this is what you can change to now show "HtmlPage" as the...

Discussion Topic  RE: [CLOSED] issue w/ DYNAMIC WHERE statement (in WebFOCUS/FOCUS Forum on Focal Point ) by J
That is exactly what I want in some cases, to wipe the entire line. However, in when doing an ignore like that, I would use _FOC_NULL.If I wanted to get rid of a dynamic where statement, I would want to wipe out that line with FOC_NONE (WHERE &where). Caution is needed here, not fear. But each to...

Discussion Topic  [SOLVED] foc_none OR foc_null (in WebFOCUS/FOCUS Forum on Focal Point ) by Geoff Fish
I have this code below some of which I found on Focal Point. My dilemma now is that it works but sometimes there is no middle name in which case i need to ignore it. I can enter the first letter followed by % and it will work but occasionally although rarely a donor may have no middle name in which...

Discussion Topic  RE: [CLOSED] Simple HTML Form Question (in WebFOCUS/FOCUS Forum on Focal Point ) by Darin Lee
That's the way chaining works. The only time anything will happen (modify contents, select values, etc.) in the EmpID# box is when you select a value in the Names box. The "ALL" option is not a value. Under the covers, it is using FOC_NONE which in essence means "ignore this line of code". So if it...
