hung pham Posted September 21, 2000 Share Posted September 21, 2000 I have two files called A and B. File A: fields: Project ID, aNumber File B: fields: Project ID, Amount, CalcNumber Fiel A and B related by Project ID In layout of file A, I have a portal that display multi records of file B. Let's say the CalcNumber= Amount * File A::aNumber. That's mean whenever the value of aNumber is changed, the CalNumber is changed, too. However the CalcNumber is in the portal is not updated (or refresh), I have to click in it's row portal to get refreshed number. What do I miss? Thank you [email protected] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do I miss? The record display in a portal does not get automatically refreshed. You need to do something which will cause the refresh. Some way to do this include Refresh Window, Exit Record, going to another file or layout and returning, as well as a host of other ways. ------------------ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Kurt Knippel Consultant Database Resources mailto:[email protected] http://www.database-resources.com =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something the user or developers does must case FMP to refresh. Editing data is not one of those things. ------------------ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Kurt Knippel Consultant Database Resources mailto:[email protected] http://www.database-resources.com =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
