IStandardDimBlock.ParentBlockIndex

Syntax

ParentBlockIndex: IStandardDimIndex;

Description

The ParentBlockIndex property determines a unique index of parent block to establish link with the current clock.

Example

Sub UserProc;
Var
    MB: IMetabase;
    Dimens: IStandardDimension;
    DimBlocks: IStandardDimBlocks;
    DimBlock: IStandardDimBlock;
    BlockIndex: IStandardDimIndex;
    s: String;
Begin
    MB:=MetabaseClass.Active;
    Dimens:=MB.ItemById("TAB_DIM").Bind As IStandardDimension;
    DimBlocks:=Dimens.Blocks;
    DimBlock:=DimBlocks.Item(1);
    BlockIndex:=DimBlock.ParentBlockIndex;
    If BlockIndex<>Null Then
        s:=DimBlock.ParentBlockIndex.Name;
    Else
        s:="No";
    End If;
End Sub UserProc;

After executing the example the "s" variable contains the name of the unique owner's index, if the second dictionary block is a child of the first one. Table dictionary identifier: TAB_DIM.
