How to add an editbox to a form
When you add a field to your form from a table or using the textbox control on the toolbar, the default controletype is
textbox. In Servoy you can see this by looking at the property displayType, its default value is TEXT_FIELD
As mentioned before you can't add an editbox to a form directly as you can in VFP. You have to change the displayType:
- Add a field to the form as a textbox
- Change the displayType property to TEXT_AREA
- Resize the control so that it can display several lines of text
- Set the scrollbar properties (Scrollbars - Horizontal and Vertical; set horizontal to never and vertical to when needed)
