Can we assign a handle to a cell of an updatable browse widget in progress 4gl? I tried using get-browse-column but it only works for the first data of the column.

  • Please explain what you're trying to do. Why do you want to assign a handle to a browse-column? – Mike Fechner Apr 10 '23 at 13:58

Something like this should do the trick ("z" is the browse handle):

function getBrowseColumnByName returns handle ( z as handle, n as character ):
         
  define variable c as handle no-undo.
        
  c = z:first-column.
    
  do while valid-handle( c ):
    if c:name = n then
      leave.
     else
      c = c:next-column.
  end.
      
  return c.
      
end.
