OpenCursorItem Method

Description

Opens the item referred to by the current row in the specified cursor.

Syntax

Public Function OpenCursorItem( _
   ByVal cursor As String _
) As Integer

Parameters

cursor

The named cursor from which the item corresponding to the current row is to be opened

Remarks

Edits made to the item are independent of the cursor. If the property edited is also held in the cursor then UpdateCursorItem must be called to reflect this change in the data held in the cursor.

If an item is opened and edited whilst moving through a cursor then UpdateCursorItem must be called to prevent disruption to the looping move operation.
