I'm seeing 2 strange things happening in my forms.

1. I have to press tab 3 or 4 times to get the focus to move out of one particular LE. The Spec manager highlights the correct 'targeted LE', but the focus lingers in the current LE. Programming does not seem to be the problem.

2. After 'loading' a saved Mass Update, it is not appear in any of the LE names in the spec manager. (The "P" is not visible in any of the boxes). I can only think that Maybe I deleted, renamed, changed the type, of the LE that was 'storing' the mass update program and now I can't recall the program. Is it lost forever? (I did delete a few text LE's and re-added them as combo boxes bound to the same field. Did this also delete my Mass update programming?)

Hope your having fun at the conference. I guess it's just me and the crickets here on the forums for a few days.

Thanks Carl, Mark taught me to use Forceredraw and I put it everywhere i could think of. Still no luck.

I'm seeing it hang only after being sent with a goto or throwfocus from a particular command button. whether the program in the button fires or is bypassed by the user. It seemed to help a little when I changed the text to 'left justify' in the problem LE, (Now i can tab out on the 2nd hit of the tab, rather than the 3rd or 4th keystroke).

Also putting the Goto at the end of On event programming AND/OR On element exit of the command button makes no difference.

Additionally, the problem does not appear when simply tabbing into the problem LE. Its only when leaving the command button.

Thanks,
Steve

Steve,

If you send this into Support, along with steps to reproduce, we can try to sort out what you're seeing.

Erika,

Something new to point out.

I'm trying to post a money value from a subform LE (money field named 'LE0') to the parent form (money field named 'Selling Price') using the following line.


selling price = @FORMFIELDVALUE("vARIANTS", "LEO", 1)

I keep getting $0 instead of the actual value. However, this command works correctly.

var vprice as double
vprice = @FORMFIELDVALUE("vARIANTS", "LE0", 1)
selling price = vprice

Am I breaking some sort of sbasic rule, or is this a bug in sesame?

Thanks,
Steve

Thanks Erika, but this line isn't working either. Perhaps the '@tomoney' is in the wrong place?


selling price = @tomoney(@FORMFIELDVALUE("vARIANTS", "LEO", 1))

Thanks,

Steve

Both fields are type: Money.

I'm currently changing the name of Selling Price to SellingPrice. I'll let you know.

Steve

Steve,

I do notice that in the line you are posting the element named "LEO" (note the alphabetic letter "O") instead of "LE0" (note the numeric number zero) - could that be the issue?
