(Windows only; GUI for .NET)
The next .NET Progress.Windows.IForm or ABL
window FormProxy (Progress.Windows.FormProxy)
object in the list of all valid OpenEdge form objects created
in the current ABL session.
Data type: Progress.Windows.IForm interface
Access: PUBLIC Read-only
Applies to: Progress.Windows.Form class, Progress.Windows.FormProxy class, Progress.Windows.IForm interface
The chain of forms begins with SESSION:FIRST-FORM
and ends with SESSION:LAST-FORM. Once your position in the chain
of OpenEdge forms is established, you can use the NextForm and PrevForm properties
to walk the chain.
Note: If you instantiate a
Progress.Windows.IForm in a non-GUI
ABL session, the object does not appear in the chain of OpenEdge forms, but only in the list
of valid class-based objects, which you can access using the FIRST-OBJECT attribute or the LAST-OBJECT attribute.See also
