Problem with locators
« on: January 12, 2018, 03:24:27 AM »
Hi,

I'm having a problem with locators in 10.11.

If the locator is a "Position" Type (other locator types work) and the field we are locating on is not in the database, but rather a local variable the filter expression that NetTalk creates includes the local field rather than the "Locate on Field(s)" variable.

This used to work in 7.40!

I have temporarily hacked the template to work around the issue for the time being, but perhaps something has changed and I'm using it wrong (not that I changed anything from 7.40 to 10.11).

I can see Bruce has changed the way the .SetView method works, specifically with regard to "LocateOnField(s)", so  it could just be a bug.

Regards
Bill

Ignore last post please.  Created another select browse and works fine.  I must be doing something odd.  Will test.
