Topic: Need some help filling a memo automaticly

Hi, is there a way to write something automaticly on a specific memobox? For instance


form1.memobox1.text = (action1.text) and (action2.text) and (action3.text)


if from1.checkbox.checked then
begin
action1.text = Person clicked on checkbox
end

procedure form1_combobox_onchange

action2.text = (person changed combobox to) + from1.combobox.text



This is just an example, probably i have syntax errors here, but what i want to make is create a history log.
Useful to see if people are "deleting" records or making mistakes

Re: Need some help filling a memo automaticly

i'm explaining this wrong

What i want to do is, create a procedure for some fields, that allows me to "ADD" text to another field:

Example:

form1_combobox1_onchange

add 'Combo1 has been changed' to form1.memo1.text



form1_combobox2_onchange

add 'combo2 has been changed' to form1.memo1.text

So when i click save, i'll also save the memo1.text and i'll ahve this:

Combo1 has been changed Combo2 has been changed

Is this porrible?

Try this

procedure Form1_ComboBox1_OnChange (Sender: string);
begin
   Form1.Memo1.Lines.Add('Combo1 has been changed');
end;

Hi VascoMorais,
I have just seen your post.
If you want to see if people are changing records (making mistakes etc), the attachment might be of some help to you.
I have made a quick change to one of my projects to show how I create a very simple 'change log' to keep a history of records that have been altered.
It is a different approach to what you were asking about but achieves the same result so it may be of interest.
Regards,
Derek.
