dataform1link

[Steven Kang]

I think there are multiple problems with the file linking code generated by the form designer. If the checkin.sxf form is saved as a Dataform1 program (after first deleting the option buttons which currently cause Simpol Personal to crash during the save), the generated code contains: link =@ fc.findlink(fc.table) if link !@= .nul fc.assignlink(link, f, error=e end if Firstly, the variable “Link” is not declared in the code as a dataform1link variable. If this is corrected manually, the first line generates an error 20 (“property not found”), presumably because “findlink” is not a property of a dataform1text object (which is what fc refers to here). I suspect there are multiple other problems which I have not had time to work through. Steven

Hi Steven,

Thanks for your reports. Some of these have already been dealt with and
will be in the next release. Others I will still have to investigate. It
sounds like the change to make dataform1text objects data-aware has not
passed through to the source code generation area. That is one of the
more complex pieces of code in the product.

Ciao, Neil
