In a 4GL code, how do I know name of current frame/procedure that I am in ?
eg. dbmsinfo says username and many such values, but if I want to know
formname / return type of the current frame or procedure, could any body
please tell me ?

At present , we use hard coding in a variable in all osq.s, that I want to
avoid.

Thanks.

Mayank.

Hi Mayank,
There are a whole lot of things you can find out using inquire_forms
statement. details are given in the 4GL reference manual.

frame_name = ii_frame_name('current');

will give you the current frame name. I don't think it works for
procedures, and I don't think there is anything that does.
You can also do ii_frame_name('previous') to get the caller frame.
