I have justed started work on a new system, I have spilt the files so far into data and interface (business logic to come later) however as I am starting to work on the layouts I realised I had not created all the fields needed. When I add additional fields to tables in the data file I cannot then see them in the interface file to put on the layout.

If anyone has experienced the same problem or better yet knows what I am doing wrong, your words of wisdom would be much appreciate.

I am using FM Developer 7.0 v3 on a Powerbook G4 1ghz 10.3.6 laptop.

Thanks

I can not reproduce your problem. Is the layout using a TO that is pointed to the table that has the added fields? In the Specify Field dialog box is correct Table named?

I have revisited and looked - tried adding a field called test to a lot of the tables, and I just cannot see it - I am pretty sure that the relationship was working until I tried this!

The only thing I can think that I did was patch up from v2 to v3 halfway through doing this, but I am fresh out of ideas.

Have you tried making a new layout for this TO to see if the new fields show?

I am so sorry - I have just found another file with the same name! Can't believe I fell into that old trap.

Thanks for your help Ralph - it does make you look again at things
