Creating MDI Sheets

1. Using the System Tree, Inherit from w_data_sheet (windows_abstract.pbl).

2. You are creating the Claim Search window. Save the window as w_claims_search in the claims.pbl. The final window will look as follows:

3. Change the window’s Title property to “Claims Search”. 4. Set the window’s height to 1800.

5. Set the DataWindow control location as follows: X – 20, Y – 470. This will leave room at the top of the window for entering search criteria.

6. Users can search claims based on a claim number, a patient number, or a claim date. 7. Drag a u_st to the top left of the window. Give this control Text of Claim ID:. 8. With focus on the static text control, press Ctrl-T to duplicate two others whose text

you will set to Patient ID: and Claim Date: respectively.

9. Drag a u_sle onto the window beside the Claim ID static text. Name this control sle_claim_id.

10. Duplicate to create another u_sle beside Patient ID. Name this control sle_pat_id.
