Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Reporting:
Query/Results Administration and Development

Generating code from within Results

The Query Generate menu option generates a standalone Progress 4GL procedure for the current query and view. Table 3–13 provides some general information about how Query Generate generates code for the current query and view.

Table 3–13: Code generation using Query Generate 

View	Code generation information
Browse	For interactive use only. The code contains a WAIT–FOR statement but does not explicitly create a window widget.
Form	For interactive use only. The code contains a WAIT–FOR statement but does not explicitly create a window widget.
Report	The DISPLAY statement is used to output data. The OUTPUT statement is used to output the report to TERMINAL PAGED.
