Description

The BARCOUNT() function returns the number of defined bars in a pop-up Xbase style menu. These types of menus are created with the DEFINE POPUP and DEFINE BAR commands. The BARCOUNT() function returns the number of bars in the currently active pop-up. The optional <expC> allows the BARCOUNT() function to operate on the named defined pop-up.


Example

define menu main message "Welcome to the Main Menu"
define pad view;
 prompt "View";
 at 0,7;
 message str(barcount() + " ways to view records.",3)
define pad custom;
 prompt "Customize";
 at 0,18;
 message str(barcount() + " ways to customize the work surface.",3)
