2nd Document window not closing

Question

I have 2 Document windows,
- win1 is parent window.
- win2 is a small window with 3 display fields
and 2 buttons OK & Cancel.
- other setting for 'win2' is
Modal = 'YES'
Close Allowed = 'YES'
i have problem with Cancel button code, i am giving
if :SYSTEM.EVENT_WINDOW = 'WIN2' then
GO_ITEM('CTRL.FLD5');
HIDE_Window('WIN2');
end if;
The WIN2 is not closing,
i am calling this 'WIN2' from a WVI trigger of a field on parent window 'win1'
by issuing SHow_WINDOW('win2') command.
but it flashes error FRM-40737: illegal restricted Procedure SET_WINDOW_PROPERTY in WVI trigger.
Any one please suggest. TY.

Answer 1

hi Sarah,
i dont to know to which item's WVI should i atttach this code.
Since the window Closed_Allowed property is set "yes".
the same code given at Form-level When-Widow-Closed, works well, closes the window in 1 click.
but i dont know the same code given for Cancel button, does not close 'win2',
One more point, first time when win2 is shown, that time, out of the [x] button on the status bar &
Cancel button on win2, if i use [x] button first, then 'win2' closes and cursor is back in CTRL.FLD5 on 'win1', fair enough.
then afterwards from CTRL.FLD5 when 'win2' is called again then the Cancel button code works fine just like the [x] button.
but the question is why not first time, if i choose Cancel button first. why it is required [x] button to be used first.
So the problems are;
- FRM-40737 is thrown whenever win2 in invoked from CTRL.FLD5
- 'WIN2' does not close by pressing Cancel button, when displayed first time.
