SetActiveControl Method

The SetActiveControl method sets the active property of a control in an applet. It returns nothing. It uses the following syntax:

this.ExecuteMethod("SetActiveControl", control_name); 

where:

• control_name identifies the name of a control.

The following code in the presentation model sets the active control to null so that the applet contains no active control:

this.ExecuteMethod("SetActiveControl", null); 

For examples that use the SetActiveControl method, see the following topics:

• Customizing the Presentation Model to Identify the Records to Delete

• Customizing the Presentation Model to Delete Records

• Accessing Proxy Objects

• AddMethod Method

The predefined Siebel Open UI code handles an active control for the applet, so it is recommended that you do not configure Siebel Open UI to directly call the SetActiveControl method. You can use SetActiveControl only in the context of another call that Siebel Open UI makes to an applet control.
