Hi There!
My name is Yoly, and I'm a new user of Alpha 5 ver 4.5 struggling with tables and sets, just to begin with.
Let me tell you briefly what I'm trying to do:
First of all the company that I'm working for is a Mortgage company whom would love to use Alpha 5 to organize, manage and bill their clients.
So far I have created the tables with information such as: Corporation name,address, and phone. As well as Guarantor and Co-guarantor with the REPEAT it information of addresses, phone and so on.
On my first attempt to create a set I got the error "repeat it fields are ,,,,," I forgot the rest of it but I pretty sure you guys are familiar with it.
Questions:
1. Do I have to create Tables with as much information as I can from the different entries (Corporation, Guarantor, co-guarantor, insurance, loan info, etc) in order to create the sets?
2. How does a repeat field affects the creation of set and forms. And even better how can I handle this?
3. If I want to create a window to enter data, view it and change date. Do I create a Form, a browse or a report and why?
4. If I want to create a Menu at the begining (when the user first open Alpha 5) where Do I start looking for the right tools to accomplish this?
Thank You all for the time to read this questions and to answer them if possible. I look foward to continue working with Alpha 5 Even though I'm just a Network Engineer trying to fit on programmers shoes!!!!
