Description
The Fnd_Dlg_SetRequest routine sets up the dialog to allow the user to enter a value when calling the Fnd_Dlg_Display routine. Call this method with no parameters to cause the request area to be displayed in the dialog:
Fnd_Dlg_SetText ("Enter your password:")
Fnd_Dlg_SetRequest Fnd_Dlg_Display If(OK=1)
$password_t:=Fnd_Dlg_GetRequest
End if
Or pass a text value to display in the request field:
Fnd_Dlg_SetText ("Enter the preferred date:")
Fnd_Dlg_SetRequest (String(Current date))
Fnd_Dlg_Display If(OK=1)
$date_d:=Fnd_Dlg_GetRequest
End if
If you pass “*” to the default parameter, the entry area displays bullets rather than text. This feature is useful for entering passwords.
Fnd_Dlg_SetText ("Enter your password:")
Fnd_Dlg_SetRequest ("*")
Fnd_Dlg_Display If(OK=1)
$password_t:=Fnd_Dlg_GetRequest
End if
