Title:
Function to return what VFP will do to my code?
Environment versions
OS:
Windows Server 2012 R2
Network:
Windows Server 2012 R2
Virtual environment:
VMWare
Hi all,
Don't even know what to search for - I thing I remember seeing a function that does this. Basically, I want to know what VFP is going to do with my code when I set a filter e.g.
SET FILTER TO State = 'NY'
when I query FILTER(), it returns STATE="NY"
i.e. it strips out the spaces and changes my single quotes to double.
Why do I need this? In one form I want to only fire the SET FILTER statement if the user has changed something. But my worked up filter string is always going to be different than what VFP returns via FILTER(). Especially something like:
SET FILTER TO State = "NY" OR State = "PA"
becomes this with FILTER()
STATE="NY".OR.STATE="PA"
I am sure I saw a function for this at one point.
