Description

The BARPROMPT() function returns the text associated with the prompt qualifier in a menu bar in a pop-up dBASE style menu. These types of menus are created with the DEFINE POPUP and DEFINE BAR commands. The bar is identified by the number that was assigned to it with the DEFINE BAR command, or with the DEFINE POPUP...PROMPT FIELD | PROMPT FILES | PROMPT STRUCTURE command. The BARPROMPT() works on the active pop-up menu unless another pop-up is specified with the optional character expression <expC>.
