Article summary

If a user would like to print out the help text they have entered into the various places in FIMS, the information is stored in the FIMS table Helpfile by table.fieldname.

Answer:
A run procedure is necessary to add a data query to access the F2 key content.

To add a query:
  • Go to run procedure and run gui\system\d-qrytyp.w.
  • In the KeyTable section enter Helpfile Tables
    • Helpfile Selection
    • For each helpfile fields(helpfile) NO-LOCK WHERE true
  • Once saved you can access the query to create a data grid in the Inquiries\dynamic data grid section of fims. 
  • Just add the two columns. 
  • The data is stored by table and field. 
  • For example you will find the help note added on the homephone field in the profile.homephone field.
