Title: EIP - Trouble adding a new record
Post by: Devan on April 03, 2012, 09:11:07 PM
Hey all,

Is there a good example app in NetTalk that demostrates the best way to do Edit In Place within a Browse.

I just quickly knocked one up, and having a few issues with it.  

For a start, hitting the 'Insert' button on the browse doesn't seem to want to add a new line as expected, and on an existing line, I have a Lookup on a field which pops up a Lookup windows as expected, but when I choose a value, it doesn't update the EIP field calling it.

I thought if I went through the examples, I might see where I am going wrong...

Cheers,
Devan

Hi Devan,

I don't think there's an example focused on EIP - but if you could post an example of the effects you are seeing I can definitely take a look at it.

the Insert should (at this time) still go to a form - it's not trivial to "add a blank row to the bottom of the browse" - but the lookup should work - as long as the lookup is a popup.

tip: pressing ? on fields that have a lookup causes the lookup to appear. Also F2 for those who remember the DOS days.

cheers
Bruce

for insert I added my own Insert button which adds 5 blank (but primed with rec id# etc) records to browse for the user to add info to and I dispose of the unfilled records later.
