Hi Ashfaq,

I'm unable to download external files at my workplace. Do you have browser-displayed instructions I can follow to create whatever it is you've created in Bookmark Name.qvw ?

thanks

As Gysbert hinted before, I advise you to check this thread:

How can I get the name of the active bookmark?

Check the last comment (by Rob Wunderlich) and the link in it.

I think it may help you and there's no need to download any file. Hope that help you.

Thanks for that but you'll have to excuse my ignorance here.

Do I have to create a test.txt file and enter my bookmark names ?

How do I create a QVBookmarks/Bookmark table ?

How do I create a macro ? (I've never done this before !)

Do I have to link the macro to an object ?

Help !!

It will be created automatically when you create call macro.,


Q) How do I create a QVBookmarks/Bookmark table ?

A) After you call macro test file will be created and your application will be reloaded.

Then you need to create table box with ID and name.


Q) How do I create a macro ? (I've never done this before !)

A) have a look at attached image.


Q) Do I have to link the macro to an object ?

A) yes, you need to link it to a button. have a look at attached image
