Bill,

When you exit the 'construct 2' use 'get_fldbuf' to save the the values
entered in the screen fields.

Ie
         LET l_string1 = NULL
         LET l_string2 = NULL

         WHILE(TRUE)
		    LET l_going_up = FALSE


                 CONSTRUCT BY NAME where_string1 ON screen_field1,
screen_field2

                         BEFORE CONSTRUCT
                                 DISPLAY l_string1 TO screen_field1
                                 DISPLAY l_string2 TO screen_field2

                         AFTER CONSTRUCT
                                 LET l_string1 = get_fldbuf(screen_field1)
                                 LET l_string2 = get_fldbuf(screen_field2)

                 END CONSTRUCT


                 CONSTRUCT BY NAME where_string2 ON screen_fielda,
screen_fieldb
				
                         AFTER CONSTRUCT
					  IF 'your condition here ??' THEN
						LET l_going_up = TRUE
				        END IF
                 END CONSTRUCT


                 IF NOT l_going_up THEN
                         EXIT WHILE
                 END IF
         END WHILE

1st time through the initialized varables will be displayed, 2nd time
through the varables will contain the data that was previously entered.

Or something like that.

Subject: [fourjs-users] Retain values in construct statement

To all,
    is it possible to retain values entered in contruct statement?
    For example, CONSTRUCT 1 and CONSTRUCT 2, entered some values in
CONSTRUCT 1, move to CONSTRUCT 2 - then entered some values in CONSTRUCT 2.
Now go back to CONSTRUCT 1.  Values entered before is still in the fields.

    Tried to look in the forums and manual but could not find anything.  Any
help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.


regards,
