IEE - Get Parent field value

Userlevel 2

Hello Everyone ,

I got 2 new IEE windows form.

One is the parent a Master Form details Tab form and one is the children a form window.

I’m trying to get fields values from the parent form.

How can I reference those fields in the children form ?

Can i get the value from the ‘’:i_hWndParent.FrameName.FieldName.Text property itself ? or I need to get it from a member variable ?

Thank you ,

Best regards

Hi @Simon L.

I think you will be able to retrieve a parent field value from the child form as follows.

(ParentWindowName).FromHandle(i_hWndParent).(ParentField).Text;

HI @Wimali Athulathmudali ,

Thank you for your answer.

This is a viable solution.

This work if the field isn’t protected or private.

Hi @Simon L. ,

You can declare a new variable and assign the required value in parent window then you will be able to

use that particular variable as above.

Thanks & Best Regards,
