Hello All,
I've run into a problem with my development. I've attached a cleaned up database. I removed private information.
The problem occurs when I open the form (“WO Data Entry Main”) and print. “Print Traveler” is the only button on the form that is active. This is a work in progress – I'm the only one that has access to the database. The problem I observe is that on the report under specifications I sometimes get the actual description of the process (which is correct), and at other times I get the name of the field ProcessName. I think it is a combination of the way my set is set up and the function I've written. But I don't understand why it works sometimes and at other times not
Is it a function of the size of the set? How objects are called?
To duplicate the problem
1.Open the form (there's only one)
2.Go to the end of the file
3.Click “Print Traveler” - Preview – and read under 'Specifications'. This should return some process callout string; Not “ProcessName”. You may have to “Exit Preview” and click “Print Traveler” again.
4.Move through the file until you select, say, “BANO” or “CANO” as the process. Change something on the form and save it. Select “Print Traveler” - Preview as above. You may have to do this several times.
I've even observed that when I first boot Alpha in the morning and open this table and go to print, there is an error immediately and if I keep closing and opening the report to print (from the form) it seems as if Alpha appears to be parsing information because if I continue to “Exit Preview” and “Print Traveler” Preview – more and more information appears on the report and it is eventually correct and then subsequently it fails and prints “ProcessName” under specifications, if that makes any sense whatsoever.
Any help would be appreciated. I know it's Friday afternoon and won't be checking this board until Monday after I leave in several hours.
Thanks,
Guy :)
