DataGate Print File Designer® - Build 8.0.355 and above

PrintFile.CheckFormatLevels Property

The boolean value indicating whether the print file format ID's at run-time are to be compared to the format ID's of the print file at compile-time.  False is the default.

control.CheckFormatLevels [=boolean]

Property Value

Boolean.  Gets or sets the boolean value indicating whether the print file format ID's at run-time are to be compared to the format ID's of the print file at compile-time.  True indicates the format ID's are to be checked; otherwise False.

Remarks

Use this property to check if the format ID of the file at run-time compares to the format ID of the file at compile-time.  Visual RPG stores the format of files when a program is first compiled.  At run-time Visual RPG compares the format ID that was stored during the compilation with the current format ID.  This can be especially useful when checking if new fields have been added to a file used by a program that has been compiled months ago. 

To set the CheckFormatLevels property, click on the right side of the property and choose one of the options in the drop-down box.


Setting Description
True The run-time and compile-time format ID's will be compared to verify they are the same.
False (Default) The run-time and compile-time format ID's will not be compared to verify they are the same.  Visual RPG will use the compile-time format ID.
