informix - Can an ACE report execute from within an I4GL Form? -

I would like to add the "print-ticket" command to the ring menu in my I4GL form so that when a user becomes a hit, a transfer To update the row, the escape key can be used to select the "print-ticket" command from the ring menu, whose current row can be displayed with the AC report, without exiting the form. I would like this print capacity for any inquiry transaction line whether it has been updated or not. Can it be done with I4GL forms?

yes

' COMMAND "print-ticket" 'I4GL can open a function running the report (or in fact, it can execute the ACE report via RUN statement). In principle, you can write the body of the work that runs the report in the action block, but it will be a diabolical method of misusing language; It is better to use the function if you give the function an argument that identifies the ticket, then it needs to be applied only with the correct ticket number - whether it is updated for the I-4LL function whether it is updated or not.
