"Value" property

Getting Started
1

I can’t find the “Value” property of “Control Name” in Xojo 2022R1.1

2

What control?
TextField? try .Text

3

Ill try thx @brian_franco

4

why the 'value" property isn’t in the repertoire?

5

The API has been updates from V1.0 to V2.0 and with that the .Value was replaced with .Text

@glory_jacques

Maybe try the Desktop Tutorial in the newer documentation:
https://documentation.xojo.com/getting_started/tutorials/desktop_tutorial.html

That should get you going in the right direction

Also check out the Xojo Programming Textbook:

https://www.xojo.com/resources/learn.php

The Textbook still mentions .Value, at least in some examples.

@AlbertoD

Thanks for catching that, I have not viewed it in some time

I have proofread the entire Introduction and notified Xojo of the errors I found. It is fixed as of June 22.

Value: what a strange idea; Value for me is experience, Price ($, €, £, ¥, etc.) but Value in this context is a misleading word.

The English mother language people may understand, but for the others, it is misleading.
