Stored procedures
Temporarily disables the filter on a data file (view or query). This filter was created by <Source>.Filter. <Source>.DeactivateFilter has no effect if no filter was declared.
Example
// Declare the filter: select customers
// between 20 and 60 years old
Customer.Filter(Age_Customer, 20, 60)
...
Customer.DeactivateFilter() // Disabled filter
...
// Browse the data file with a filter on age
// Process the customers who are between 20 and 60 years old
// (ProcessCustomer2060 procedure)
Customer.ActivateFilter()
Customer.ReadFirst(Age_Customer)
WHILE Customer.Found() = True
ProcessCustomer2060()
Customer.ReadNext(Age_Customer)
END
Syntax
<Result> = <Source>.DeactivateFilter()
<Result>: Boolean
  • True if the filter is disabled,
  • False if an error occurred (data file or item not found).
<Source>: Type corresponding to the specified source
Name of the data file, view or query used.
Remarks

Enabling and disabling a filter

The filter is enabled once it has been declared (<Source>.Filter). A filter disabled by <Source>.DeactivateFilter can be re-enabled by <Source>.ActivateFilter.
Remark: During the call to <Source>.Close, the filter enabled by HFilter is automatically deleted.

Number of possible active filters

A single filter can be enabled at a time for a given file.

Browse

The modifications performed by <Source>.Filter and <Source>.DeactivateFilter are taken into account when using <Source>.ReadFirst/<Source>.First, <Source>.ReadLast/<Source>.Last or <Source>.ReadSeekFirst/<Source>.ReadSeekLast.
