OriginalValue

This property returns the value of a field, that is, the value that from the database. If the value hasn't been changed and saved by the user, it is the original value from the database. If the value has been changed and saved by the user, it is the existing value in the database. This property does not work for derived records. Original values are the database values, and derived records do not have a corresponding database value.

Example

&Orig = &MyField.OriginalValue;

If &Orig = &Date Then

/* do current day processing */

Else

/* do other processing */

End-If;
