ever have a Value List not drop down?

[J__]

Hi,

I have a tester who is testing a little program i wrote.

She reported that she tabbed over to a popup menu, which normally drops down a list when you tab into it and today it didn't work. She tabs into the popup and no drop down appears.

Has anyone seen a case where when you tabbed to the value list, the list did not drop down?

I did discover that they are running Fm7 v1 but in the fix list, i didn't see this listed as a bug.

they are also running from a server, the server is mac OS X fm7 Server. and her machine is a windowsXp.

I cannot duplicate this problem... and now it has appeared to have gone away... weird.

anyone ever seen this kind of thing before?

thanks,

and Happy Holidays to All,

Sincerely,

J__

I had this happen just two weeks ago on a Windows XP machine accessing a file from Server 5.5. Closing and opening FileMaker resolved it. I never figured out why it wasn't working for only one machine. AFAIAA, it never happened previously and we've been running 5.5 for three years.

Queue,

Thanks for the response. Hope you had a good holiday. And, although it may sound corny, I'd like to express my thanks for responding to my questions in the Filemaker Forum, I really do appreciate it and your solutions and suggestions are helpful - thanks!

The users were running from Windows XP too. But running a FM7 v1 filemaker - but the file they were accessing was coming from fm7 Server .. and the I had actually created teh file using FM7 v3. It was one person who seemed to be having the problem - although not alot of people were testing at the time (so close to xmas).... I gave them a new build and the problem went away.

I'm encouraging them to use Filemaker 7 v3

I was concerned though i just couldn't see what was making it happen... and I hate the 'weird' bugs like that.

thanks for the response and happy holidays,

sincerely,
