The name of the map field object.
MapField.name
Arguments
MapField
Required. MapField object.
Remarks
READONLY.
This property is useful when dynamic host screen updates or HTML field generation are performed by using the data already defined in the maps within the screen definition.
The following VB.NET example demonstrates how a function can generate HTML field input tags for a host screen by using the map definition data:
Dim objCon As New HostConnection
Dim objScr As HostScreen
Dim objCurrentDef As ScreenDef
Dim objMap As ScreenMap
Dim objMapField As MapField
Dim strHTML As String
Dim i As Integer
objCon.HostName = "Insure"
objCon.Connect "standard"
Set objScr = objCon.getScreen
Set objCurrentDef = objScr.getScreenDef 'get the current definition
If objCurrentDef.mapCount > 0 Then
Set objMap = objCurrentDef.getScreenMap(CLng(0)) 'get the map by index (convert to long)
For i = 0 To objMap.fieldCount - 1
Set objMapField = objMap.getMapField(CLng(i))
strHTML = strHTML & "<TD>" & objMapField.Name _
& ":</TD><TD><INPUT TYPE='text' NAME='" _
& objMapField.Name & "' VALUE='" _
& objScr.mappedGet(objMapField.Name) _
& "'></TD></TR>"
Next
Else
MsgBox "No maps defined for this screen."
End If
Set objMapField = Nothing
Set objMap = Nothing
Set objCurrentDef = Nothing
Set objScr = Nothing
objCon.disconnect "reserve"
Set objCon = Nothing
