Hi,

Thanks for the response.

The window A and window B are two different window which user can independently open whenever they want. During a button click process in Window B i have to check if Window A is open and in that window a DataWindow is retrieved. I should be able to access the data from the Data Window present in Window A.

The window A is a sheet. So is there any way we can achieve this?

Hi Arthi,

there are several options.

Short answer: You need a variable of the window you want access.

If you open the window like this

open (w_window_a)

it is very easy. You can just use the windowname as name of a window variable and access controls in it.

w_window_a.dw_1.RowCount()

If you don't open the window this way, you can't access it via window name! You need a variable for the window.

One example:

w_window_a lw_a_window_a

open (lw_a_window_a)

// this way you can open more than one w_window_a.
// lw_a_window_a is in this case a local variable for one of the opened windows
// In your case you need a global or some kind of instance variable. But it works the same.

// to access the window
lw_a_window_a.dw_1.RowCount()

If your window is a sheet in a frame you can use frame window functions to find the sheet you want.

HTH,
