Wizard

Top  Previous  Next
The Wizard helps Designers create WAFFL code
The Wizard is launched when you click on the Wizard button from any of the properties windows (Forms, Subforms, Questions, tasks)
The Wizard button is only available if there is a syntax box in the form you are completing
The Wizard will launch a pop up window
There are two parts of the Wizard, defining Parameters and creating Functions
The first step in creating WAFFL code is selecting a Function from the Function Type question
This will then show you how many parameters need to be supplied for this function
Designers can then drag the Function back to a syntax box
The second step in using the Wizard is to define Parameters
First select the Parameter Type
For example:  Where you wish to get the Parameter from (Form, Database, Session, User Data or some combination of them)
Next fill in the rest of the Parameter section
The Subform determines which Table/Subform you wish to retrieve the information from
The Begin Row Range and End Row Range determine the name of the row you want to retrieve the information from
Finally the Question determines the name of the Column/Field/User item you wish to retrieve the information from
While filling out these Parameters the Parameter String is translating your request into WAFFL code
Next, Designers need to embed the Parameter String within the appropriate place in the function string
Designers can then drag the Parameter back to a syntax box in the properties form you are working with
Close the pop up window when finished with the Wizard
