i have made a form in base so i want to make the search button that i would be able to seach any data in future kindly tell me the option how to make this!?
Hi
By default the navigation bar already includes this tool (the first tool in the toolbar). If you have not disabled this bar you already have this function (you can (dis)enable the navigation bar in Form
properties▸Data
tab).
If you really want to add a button on the form you can record a search in a macro and then assign the macro to the button. The generated macro is something like:
sub Search
dim document as object
dim dispatcher as object
document = ThisComponent.CurrentController.Frame
dispatcher = createUnoService("com.sun.star.frame.DispatchHelper")
dispatcher.executeDispatch(document, ".uno:RecSearch", "", 0, Array())
end sub
Note: you have to enable Tools
▸Options
▸LibreOffice
▸Advanced
▸Enable macro recording
if you want to recreate the macro above.
Regards
