drill-down process in SBXA Selection-Process

Hi all,

has anyone ever used the drill-down process in SBXA  Selection Process? (F6 Addit in /pd.s)

I wonder how to return te selection from the called process to the main-screen where the initial-selction process was called and skip the initial-select.
Excample
F3 - Function on Field calls S.SELECT.ITEMS which selects some items and displays information.

The goal is now to give the user the ability to change the displayed fields after the selection has taken place.
I got to manage the call of another selection process in the F4 - drill-down slot (e.g. S.SELECT.ITEMS2) which works on the same select list, but after returning from S.SELECT.ITEMS.2 the user still is on S.SELECT.ITEMS instead of returning to the screen with the selected Item from S.SELECT.ITEMS2.

I already tried to Set option S and option D  to Options in the called Selection-Process but no luck...

Unfortunately i didn't found any documentation how to use the drill-down slot 

best regards

Thomas

hello Thomas,

Into S.SELECT.ITEMS.2 you set a uservar like USERDATA(1) with the value you want to return and set @RTN.FLAG='X' to exit S.SELECT.ITEMS.

In S.SELECT.ITEMS you define a ProcessAfter doing @VALUE=@USERDATA(1) 

I hope this help

hello Thomas,

About Drill down slot from PD.S,

The process you set is called when the user press F4, 

the @KEY var contain the current 'key value' of the current line of the select view (am'ed if multi select)

Then into drill down you can work on each key as you like. 

We user a standard 'PD.I.DRILLDOWN,inputprocess' concept to 'Zoom' a data to it's defn screen.

* GP.DRILLDOWN,procname like I*XXX*XXXX
LOCAL KEYS,PROC
PROC = @PARAM
KEYS = @KEY
WHILE KEYS<1> # '' DO
  DATA KEYS<1>
  EXEC PROC
  KEYS = DEL(KEYS,1,0)
REPEAT
EXIT 0

introduced in r5.2, see General help/Techno Help / Readme / Readme 5.2

I hope this help
