Filtered browse does not refresh after change (bug?)

[peterH]

A browse is being filtered by a status code based on the value selected from a drop list (a local variable) and the filter does work! The browse is embedded on a memory form.

If I change the value of the status code (using a normal netwebform) the browse is empty upon return from the form. I can then select a different status and the browse updates ok.

For fun I changed the form to open in popup mode and alas - the browse refreshes automatically.

Looks like a bug in 6.40

could you post an example please Peter?
I think it's something simple, but an example would help identify the root cause.

Still fighting this one 

The Drop Filter example (33) works and so does my own little test program - if I use TPS files!
But even if I wiz up a brand new app using MSSQL I'm having the problem: the browse does not refresh upon return from the update form.

I don't know what to do! I've told my customers to press F5 in order to refresh the browse but that's not very proffessional.

Am I really the only one experiencing this?

6.46 and 6.3

If you can trap an event of sorts upon the return, could you bolt in some Javascript calls to do the refresh for you?

Yes, maybe. But it used to work. Until some NT update (around 6.40).

But thanks anyway.

Hi Peter

I think this is the same problem I have. Since version NT6.34 browse does not refresh correctly. I managed to get round this by changing then browse loading method to FILE from PAGE.

I also have the problem when load method is PAGE when the browse refreshes even when pressing F5 key the Record Pointer does not go to the FIRST record.

Don't think this is any help

is the site online where I can see it Peter? Or better yet can you send me the app & dict so I can duplicate here.
(hint - include instructions so I know what to look for.) - I suspect it is a little thing, but it's hard to be specific out of context. And context can matter a lot.

Vinnie - if you have an example of any effect like this I'd love to see it.

cheers

Hi Bruce,

Just sent you login info by private mail.

Hi Bruce,

I've sent you an example app+dct by private mail.

The problem exposes itself when using MSSQL but NOT when using tps, so there must be some kind of different handling involved somewhere.
