New Cards

[Mullet2856]

Hi,

I am new to HyperNext and have an idea for a database-type program similar to the Book HN and HC projects.  I was wondering if there was a way to script a button to add a new card in the program?  I have tried to use the the HN and HC projects but they are both erroring out before I could use them.

Any help would be great.

Hi

Welcome to HyperNext.

There is a function called CardCreateFN that duplicates the specified card. I have just tried it and it worked.

For example, assuming a project with just one card:-

Code: [Select]

Local cnum

@ duplicate home card
Put CreateCardFN(1) into cnum

GotoCard cnum
Note, the function TotalCardsFN should return the number of cards in the application but it has a bug because in an app with only 1 card it returns 2. However, after a card has been created it does return the correct number of cards.

Hi,

Welcome to our HyperNext forums.

Yes, there is the CreateCardFN function. Basically it just creates a new card from another card.

Code: [Select]

@ creates a new card from card 2
@ and then opens the new card

Local cardnum

Put CreateCardFN(2) into cardnum

GotoCard cardnum

Probably the best way to learn how to use HyperNext is to follow the lessons in the Quickstart PDF http://www.tigabyte.com/docs/QuickStart.pdf

That will give you the basics and so allow you to understand some of the free projects.
