dbc_BeforeDBGetProp Event

Occurs before the DBGetProp( ) function runs.

PROCEDURE dbc_BeforeDBGetProp(cName, cType, cProperty) 

-or-

PROCEDURE dbc_BeforeDBGetProp
LPARAMETERS cName, cType, cProperty

Parameters

• cName
  Specifies the value of the first parameter in the DBGetProp( ) function, the name of the database, field, named connection, table, or view for which DBGETPROP( ) returns information.
• cType
  Specifies the value of the second parameter in the DBGetProp( ) function, the object type of the item named in cName.
• cProperty
  Specifies the value of the third parameter in the DBGetProp( ) function, the property for which DBGETPROP( ) returns information.

Remarks

You can use the dbc_BeforeDBGetProp event to track attempted access to the database before DBGetProp( ) runs.

Return .F. from this procedure to prevent the property value from being returned to DBGetProp(). This will cause the DBGetProp() function to return NULL.

Example

* Reports to the screen Event name, where it is called from and ;
* the parameter passed.
PROCEDURE dbc_BeforeDBGetProp ;
         (cName,;
          cType,;
