Phantom portal entries

[kenseye]

I know somebody must have experienced this already...

When entering a new record from the file represented by the portal, the record is not visible in the portal until I go to another layout and come back. What am I not doing at the close of the file? This db was first written in FM5, converted to 8 and uses separate files not tables.

Not too sure but it would appear that the record is not committed at the end of your new record procedure.

Would I then need to add a Commit Record step when closing the file or record?
