Case.view Function

Format
b = dictionary_name.view(ʃviewer_argumentsʅ);
Description
The Case.view function displays the questionnaire view for the case held by the Case object, presenting the questionnaire within an embedded window. As of CSPro 8.0, a dictionary is considered a Case object.
Viewer Arguments
Optional named arguments can be used to control how the embedded web browser displays on Windows:
  • title := string expression giving the title of the window.
  • width := numeric expression specifying the width of the window in display units.
  • height := numeric expression specifying the height of the window in display units.
  • showCloseButton := conditional expression that, if false, hides the window's Close button.
If either the height or width is specified, then both values must be provided. Hiding the Close button also removes the margin around the web browser, so the browser will fill the entire embedded window.
Return Value
The function returns a logical value of 1 (true) if the case was displayed, 0 (false) if there was an error viewing the case.
Example
PROC HOUSEHOLD_FORM

   
// view the contents of the current case
    CENSUS_DICT.view();
