FrameExec Class
The FrameExec class is an object representing a specific instantiation of a frame.
To access the FrameExec object from your 4GL code, you can use the CurFrame system variable anywhere within the frame script or any of the field scripts in the frame. The CurFrame system variable lets you:
• Access information about the current state of the running frame, such as the current field on the form
• Change the size of the window in which a frame is displayed
• Change the background color of the window
• Change the field on which to resume after some exit code has completed
You can also use the FrameExec object in conjunction with the openframe statement and the SendUserEvent method to communicate between concurrent open frames. For information about communicating between frames, and more information about referencing the FrameExec object, see the Programming Guide.
ReasonCode settings and system constant values are listed in
ReasonCode Settings for FrameExec.
