Example

The following example opens a table as a RecorRef variable. The variable, RecRef, is used with the GetFilters method to retrieve the filters that are applied in the Customer table. If filters are applied, they will be stored in the Filters1 variable. The Filters1 variable does not contain any filters because filters have not been set. Then the SetRecFilter Method (RecordRef) is used to set the value in the current key of the current record as a filter. The variable Filters2 will now contain No. as a filter.

var
    RecRef: RecordRef;
    Filters1: Text;
    Filters2: Text;
    Text000: TexConst ENU='Filters1 contains : %1  Filters2 contains: %2';
begin   
    RecRef.Open(Database::Customer);  
    Filters1 := RecRef.GetFilters;  
    RecRef.SetRecFilter;  
    Filters2 := RecRef.GetFilters;  
    Message(Text000, Filters1, Filters2);  
end;
