Apologies if this sounds like a stupid question, I am still learning my way around Ebase and its foibles! Is there a way to store variables between form pages, in a kind of global-variable way? Or just by passing the variable to a form field from one form to another?
For example, I have created a basic login form and a script in Ebase that does a lookup in a database table for the username and password, and if they both exist, opens the next form. Is there any way that I can take the user-entered username value and apply it to a text box on the NEXT form to be loaded, or store it as a variable somewhere that I can then use to do further database work with once the user has proceeded past the login form? As far as I can see, as soon as the next form is loaded, the current script is ended, so I can't do something like:
goto FORM FRM_2;
set FIELD1 = un; (if 'un' is the username variable in the current form)
I know this sounds like such a stupid question, apologies it is my first foray into coding in FPL and Ebase. Thanks in advance for any help
