Hi All

Every since I have switch from FM6 to FM 8.5 I notice that the Set Field Command is not as reliable as in FM 6. Today I have spend two hours trying to get a simple set field command to work.

The relationship between the two files are valid becasue in the releation ship box I checked the box to create a record and the record is ceated when the script is run but the two fields are empty. I have redone the relationship twice and delete the two set field commands and add them back to the script but I get the same results as before.

This script has run in FM 6 for two years with no problem but I can not get is to work in FM 8.5. Has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks

FM7+ handles Set Field differently than pre-7. You should read this White Paper on migrating pre-7 solutions.

The problem is likely a record commit issue. If you add a Commit Record/Request step after the Set Field step I'm betting you'll be ok.

That was not the problem

Could you post a simple test file for us to see what you are doing?

Thanks

I delete the file reference to the file and then make a new file reference to the file and it works.

Thanks
