Text in field not printed

Featured Replies

Hi all,

Maybe someone could help me with this,

I have a DB with various tables (FM8), one of which is a Address table, where the client can also type a letter to an address.

There is an Address entry, write letter and letter print layouts. Now when a letter is written and printed when the DB is running locally everything is fine, but when it's running from the server (FM7) the address is printed but not the letter text field. If one then overwrites the letter (same address) and tries to print from the server, the old text which was overwritten is printed.

It is not a global field and I have checked that all concerned fields are in the correct table, it seems like the text is being cached somewhere?

Any Ideas

Regards

Ian

Here's a possible troubleshooting step (not a solution)

Make a script with a commit record step. Add a button to trigger it on the 'write letter' layout. Before leaving the 'write letter' layout (presumably the table occurrence for this layout is the letters table), commit the record. Then go to your 'letter print' layout and try printing.

ok, thanks I'll give it a try.
