Description

The FooterBar control puts up to 5 buttons on the bottom of the form. Buttons can be text, an icon or both. When clicked, <FooterBarID>_onclick(choice) is called. The name of the button which is called is in choice.

To add a control to your app, choose the control’s icon in the Toolbar, then position it on the Design Screen. Use the Property Editor to set the properties you need, then add functions to your code to respond to the events that come from the control: usually, just onclick.

.refresh() Runtime function. Call this after you display a new form with a FooterBar.

Events

Example

Function FooterBar1_onclick(choice)
  If TypeName(choice)="object" Then Exit Function
  MsgBox "Button is " & choice
End Function
