URL Check

Hi all, 

I am new to Open Edge. I have a question. Here is a situation:

I have a button "Call". When I call click this button, a pop-up will be opened. These two are separate actions (separate . w files). I need the URL of the calling button in the another action (pop-up action). How to do this?

Welcome to OpenEdge!

The terminology in your question might be confusing, or you might need to provide some more context. I am assuming you are running an interactive (GUI) client. Clicking on the "Call" button in window1.w will bring up window2.w as a pop-up (dialog). In window2.w, you want to run the same action in window1.w. If this is the case, there are a number of ways to do this. One way is to pass window1.w's procedure handle to window2.w so window2.w could call an internal procedure in window1.w.

OpenEdge clients do not communicate between windows, or perform actions, with URLs. I suspect there might be some web-based aspect to this, but without more detail, I don't want to make too many assumptions.
