Application Function Buttons

By default, Iron Speed Designer creates a set of function buttons for Table Report and Edit Table panels.  A button for this operation appears above the table in a row of function buttons.  Note that not all buttons are applicable in both the Table Report and Edit Table panels. You can configure which button to include using Configure menu button in the Application Wizard before creating a page.

Button

Description

Add

Links to an associated Add Record page.

Edit

Links to an associated Edit Record page.  The first selected record is edited.

Copy

Copies a selected record for quick editing in an Add Record page.

Delete

Deletes one or more selected records.

The Delete button behaves differently on a Table Report page than on an Edit Table page.  On a Table Report page, the records are deleted when the button is clicked.  On an Edit Table page records are removed from the page, but not actually deleted until the Save button is clicked.  If the Save button is not subsequently clicked, records that appear to have been deleted will re-appear.
