Incorporating a Toolbar, Menu, and Status Line

The tenth sheet of the Form Wizard dialog enables you to include one or more of the toolbar, menu, and status line Windows features on your form.

To display a toolbar, status line, and menu on your form

1. Ensure that the Show Toolbar check box is checked. (The Show Toolbar check box is checked by default.) When a toolbar is displayed on your form, the buttons that are included in the toolbar depend on the selections that you made in earlier Form Wizard sheets. For details, see "Using the Generated Form" under "What Form Wizard Produces", earlier in this chapter.

2. Ensure that the Show StatusLine check box is checked. (The Show StatusLine check box is checked by default.)

   The status line is divided into two parts. The first part displays the status, which is most often Ready. The second part displays the current instance number of the instance displayed, or when using a dictionary, it displays the number of instances in the dictionary.

3. Check the Show Menu check box. (By default, a menu is not displayed on your form.)

   When a menu is displayed on your form, standard menus for File, Edit, and Help are displayed on the form. The Edit menu contains submenus for Cut, Copy, and Paste functions, and the Help menu contains the Index and About submenus.

4. Uncheck the Generate Code check box if you do not want code (logic) to support your form at run time generated. (By default, code for supporting a form at run time is generated.)

   Uncheck the Generate Code check box if you do not want to generate standard JADE code; for example, you want only the graphical user interface (the form image) and perhaps a few custom-defined methods to support a page on the Web. (Forms generated as Web pages do not need all of the support logic generated by the standard Form Wizard.)
