Data entry through a Custom Dialog

[EddyR]

I just made the jump to 7 and my new Custom Dialogs do not work as I would have expected. I simplified my script down to:

Set Error Capture [ On ]

New Record/Request

Show Custom Dialog [ Title: "TITLE"; Buttons: "OK", "not OK"; Input #1: records::name record fill out, "test" ]

If [ Get ( LastMessageChoice ) = 1 ]

Beep

End If

Commit Records/Requests

gives me only the value in my target field (+ the beep) when I push button 1. By contrast, when I push button 2, no beep (correct) but the target field remains empty

Where do you set the Target in this script ?

In the Custom Dialog ("records::name record fill out" is the name of the field). But don't forget that the the target field contains the value entered into the dialog if I choose button 1 !

"when I push button 2, no beep (correct) but the target field remains empty "

Eddy, Custom Dialog only accepts input and sets a field based upon default 1. If you want to accept user input to a field, it must be 1 (or OK). Reverse them and it should work as expected.

Thanks MoonShadow. I knew it was something silly but after almost an hour of testing slightly modified scripts, I had not found the reason yet
