Can you create a calculated field in a browse which uses previous line?

Post Date: 12/6/18 (Bronze, 20 Posts) Recent Posts

Hi All,

I want to create a calculated field inside a browse which does takes away data from the previous line in the browse? Is this possible and is there any documentation which provides some examples of the types of expressions I can use?

Kindest Regards,

Joseph

I think it is possible using pre-processor Progress code blocks in Browse Maintenance, but I recommend against trying to do this. It can give bugs when the user changes the sort conditions, which generally will result in server-side sorting of the data and this will destroy your calculations.
