I upgraded from FM-Pro5 to FM-Pro8 (yay!). I had a field that said "Is this customer in the Customer Database?" an option box "isCustomer", Yes No.

Then I had a pull down box that listed the customers. when a customer is selected, the name, address, phone, etc. would fill in.

I used the option box to help prevent people from overwriting the filled-in information. The Filled information had "validation" by "If Iscustomer = yes" If customer is yes, do not allow the user to enter information.

It worked... in version 5. Now in version 8, it does not allow the lookup (from the pulldown) to change the box.

Does anyone know how to fix it? or a better way to do this?

Thanks.

The conversion often misses setting the indexing correctly, and value lists will only work with indexed values.

Check the index settings for the pulldown and the relationship.
