Description

The Fnd_Dlg_Request routine is designed to replace 4D’s Request function. It displays a Request dialog that can be modified by setting the default response text, the text of the OK button, and the text of the Cancel button. This routine returns the user’s response and sets the OK variable.

$reply_t:=Fnd_Dlg_Request ("Enter the customer's last name:")

If you pass “*” to the OK button or Cancel button parameter, the localized text for “OK” or “Cancel” will be used. If you have used the Fnd_Dlg_Request routine, you do not need to call Fnd_Dlg_GetRequest because this routine returns the data entered by the user.
