This method is like the SetFilter Method (Record) method.

Example

The following example opens the Customer table as a RecordRef variable that is named CustomerRecref. The Field Method (RecordRef) creates a FieldRef for the first field (No.) and stores the reference in the MyFieldRef variable. The GetFilter Method (FieldRef) retrieves the filters that are set on the No. field and stores the value in the Filter1 variable. The value of any filter that is set is displayed in a message box. The SetFilter method sets a filter that selects records from 10000 to 40000 in the No. field. The GetFilter Method (FieldRef) retrieves and stores the new filter in the Filter2 variable and displays it in a message. The value in the Filter1 variable is blank because no filter is set. The value in Filter2 is 10000..40000 because of the filter that is set by the SetFilter method.

var
    MyFieldRef: FieldRef;
    CustomerRecref: RecordRef;
    Filter1: Text;
    Filter3: Text;
    Text000: Label 'Filter before filters set: %1.';
    Text001: Label 'Filter after filters set: %1.';
begin
    CustomerRecref.Open(Database::Customer);  
    MyFieldRef := CustomerRecref.Field(1);  
    Filter1 := MyFieldRef.GetFilter;  
    Message(Text000, Filter1);  
    MyFieldRef.SetFilter('10000..40000');  
    Filter2 := MyFieldRef.GetFilter;  
    Message(Text001, Filter2);  
end;
