[proFit-list] want to cycle through all windows and perform an action on the data windows

[pro Fit Support]

Dear Dave

Happy new year to you, too.

Use the property “type” of the window object. The following script iterates through all document windows and flags the ones that are data windows:

w = pf.NextWindow(0)

while w != 0:
    o = pf.GetWindowObject(window = w)
    print ("found: ", o.name)
    if o.type == pf.dataWindow:
        print ("   -> is a data window with", o.nrRows, "rows and", o.nrCols, "columns")
    w = pf.NextWindow(w)
        

Hope this helps.

Best regards

Kurt
