IncludeBlankValues property
Special value available in formulas:
Item
The button this property is part of, enabling multiple checked items in the app designer to share the same formula and be updated all at once.
Consider the fields Field1 and Field2, which should
only be considered to be valid if their values are
greater than 4. Without using the Item
value, the Valid
property of Field1 would need to use the formula Field1 > 4Field1 > 4 and the Valid
property of Field2 would need to use the formula Field2 > 4Field2 > 4.
Using Item
, both formulas can read Item > 4Item > 4. This is useful
if you have many fields and you want to be able to update their
formulas all at once. To do so, click their check boxes in Calcapp
Creator and make sure that a checked field is selected. Then, when you
update a formula for one checked field, you update all the other
checked fields too, which is a great timesaver.
Use Item
in exactly the same way you'd use the regular
name. Button1.VisibleButton1,Visible and Item.VisibleItem,Visible are equivalent, for
instance.
Whether fields whose values are blank are included in the report.
If this property is not set, FALSE is assumed.
Examples
Makes an email report button include fields with blank values only if IncludeBlankValuesSwitchField is toggled to its "on" position.
This formula is associated with the OnPress property of a formula button, and causes a report to be sent when the button is pressed. All fields of the app are considered, courtesy of the { App }{ App } parameter. Fields with blank values are included only if IncludeBlankValuesSwitchField is toggled to its "on" position.
