Hello friends. I know that if we use the LINKTOFORM() function we can open a form to add a row to a specific table. Today the concern arises to find out if it is possible to open a form of an existing row, to be able to modify it, without creating a new RowID, but to use the one of the chosen row.
For example, I would like that, when selecting an action, a form of the row I am in opens, that is, with its ID
I appreciate your answers
Thanks Mark! there I see it!
The action I wanted exists in appsheet and it’s called “Edit this row” I’ve never seen it before but it’s what I needed, to edit the form in the same row without opening another new form.
@Marc_Dillon , I must mark your comment as a solution since it is actually the solution to the problem, not the one I was asking about. THANK YOU!
I must clarify, however, that the explanation of Appsheet falls short but with a couple of adjustments it is possible to achieve it. It’s not clear if the arguments should be in quotes or in square brackets but I’ve fixed that now and it works.
Also I must say that this link no longer works:
Square bracket notation returns the value in a specific column.
A quoted (or unquoted if no spaces) column name refers to that column, not its value. That is used in cases like MAXROW or LOOKUP.
For LINKTOROW() it requires the key value of a specific record. If you need to open a view of the current record, you would use square brackets around that record’s key column to get it’s value.
Perfect!! Understood, this is a notation! all the best @Marc_Dillon
