This post is, I suppose, directed to Ron because JScript programming related.
I'm trying to create a utility (similar to 'Display all Comments') regarding display of 'all Multi-Language Fields'.
If I was a 'JScript' guru, it would surely be done by now but I'm not. I also read some WWW Ref sites articles but I couln't found any clear explanations of what I would like to achieve.
For info, I used to be fully conversant for manipulating fields associated with 'relational databases' such as Foxpro. Having said that, I don't master at all your 'Collections' even after reading you various SDK help articles.
What I'm trying to do is to access some fields names (and values) in your various collections.
Say each Ind record in the Ind collection has many fields: name.first, birth.date, birth.place, ...
Question: Is it possible to access these fields, one by one, in order to process them in a loop, e.g.
field(1).name = name.first  ; field(1).value = "Jean-Claude" ; field(1).type = string/text (say the 1st field in an Ind record)
field(2).name = birth.date  ; field(2).value = "7 Mar 1950" ; field(2).type = date
field(3).name = birth.place ; field(3).value = "Paris" ; field(3).type = string/text
... and so on, till the field().count (the last field in that Ind record).
You'll probably have to substitute the words 'record' and 'field' to suit your 'collection' language, i.e. keys and whatever.
The above is perhaps a bit simplistic but I really would like to know if it is achievable! At the moment I cannot 'visualize' the structure of a collection, compared to a database with clear records (rows) and fields (columns).
Thank you.
JC
