SUMMARY

The GraphWizard is a FoxPro for Windows application named GENGRAPH.APP. The SHOWGRPH procedure, which can be called from GENGRAPH.APP, allows a graph saved by GraphWizard to be displayed.

SHOWGRPH uses the MODIFY GENERAL command to display the specified graph. SHOWGRPH does not update the data stored in the graph. However, a user can double-click the MODIFY GENERAL window to modify the graph.

A developer might create a set of graphs by using the GraphWizard, store them in a database, then redisplay them at a later time with the SHOWGRPH procedure.

MORE INFORMATION

The correct syntax for calling SHOWGRPH is: 

   DO SHOWGRPH IN GENGRAPH.APP WITH <expC1>, <expN>[, <expC2>]
The clauses that are used with the SHOWGRPH procedure are <expC1>, <expN>, and <expC2>, which is optional.
  • <expC1> is the name of the table containing the previously saved graph. The GraphWizard names this table QRYGRAPH.DBF by default.
  • <expN> is the record number containing the graph to be displayed.
  • <expC2> is the title to use for the window containing the graph displayed. If the title is not specified, the default title of "GRPHDBF.OLEGRAPH" is used.

For example: 

   DO SHOWGRPH IN GENGRAPH.APP WITH ;
      "c:\foxprow\qrygraph.dbf",4,"My Window"
This example displays the graph stored in record 4 of QRYGRAPH.DBF with a window title of "My Window." It does not matter which DBF/cursor is open in the current work area when the SHOWGRPH procedure is invoked.
