QUESTION:
Now that I have Visual DataFlex 11 I see that the EDIT class became obsolete and needs to be replaced by the cTextEdit class. I also read that the class does no longer have items and that the whole object is one value. How does this relate to kB 1589?
ANSWER:
You are right; the cTextEdit class replaces the Edit class. This was primarily done to have a RichEdit control support in VDF. A number of new features are present in this class and method names changed. Some methods are new and extra while others are no longer available.
To get the value of the cTextEdit object you simply ask for the contents of the Value property.
Get Value Of oMyEditor To sAllTheText
It is comparable with the EditWindowText function described in KB 1589.
