Advanced use and enhancement of 4D Write Pro documents
47:00 min
Abstract
During this session, you’ll work with code samples to learn the most effective way to use 4D Write Pro. Since documents are stored as objects, we’ll learn how to maximize 4D Write Pro documents by adding relevant and complementary information.
This allows using 4D Write Pro attributes to replace database fields while retaining indexing and quick search abilities. We’ll review how to use style sheets “normally”. We’ll also explore how to use them in a more advanced way to build a summary based on one or more levels. Finally, we’ll look at how to use 4DWP documents as entry forms using protected areas.
