Description
The Item_Options property allows you to query or change one or more format options for entry_items. The option setting is returned as a Boolean value. The top 16 bits of the item options are for internal use and should not be changed by users. When you set item_options, you will usually wish to set field_options as well.
In a typical application, when using Data Dictionaries, this is done using the Field_Option property. That topic also fully explains each possible option.
Sample
Set Item_Options 0 to (DD_CAPSLOCK ior DD_FINDREQ)
Sample
Integer iOptions
Get Item_Options 0 to iOptions
Set Item_Options of oObjectName 0 to iOptions
Set Field_Options of oObjectName 0 to iOptions
To query the item options of an entry item, use the individual Item_Option property. That property also lists all possible options.
