Hi,

I am looking for a standard way to determine for each

handle what kind of object it is:

- dynviewer

- dynlookup

- dyncombo

and so on.

Is that available?

Best regards,

Hi Arnold,

This does not return "dynlookup" but only SmartDataField

for lookups and other smartdatafields.

Hi Martin,

I believe you want the following:

MESSAGE DYNAMIC-FUNCTION('getObjectName':U IN ) VIEW-AS ALERT-BOX.

Hi Brian,

Sorry but this does not return the dynamics-objecttype.

The getObjectName returns several kind of values, dependent

on how you have put the lookup on you dynamic or static

viewer.

I have seen values like:

- name of the lookup

- "dynlookup"

- "dynlookup(2)", "dynlookup(3)", and so on...

Martin

Hi Martin,

Does the "dynxxx" part of the value stay consistent?

If so, just check the return value to see if the result begins

with "dyncomb", "dynview" or "dynlook".

Hi Brian,

As already said, sometimes it returns the name of the

lookup which does not match "dynlookup*" .

There is already a getAstraObjectName, so actually I expect a kind of

getDynamicsObjectType.

In case I have to write this my own, where should I put such function?

Hi Martin,

Sorry. You didn't make it entirely clear the first time (the "*"

was missing).
