Hi All,

I am wondering if anybody encountered an issue like this.

" I am using global container fields to hold interface graphics and as soon as I exit the solution... all of the graphics in the container goes away!"

I am lost with this and have been searching for the answer for days with an obvious answer of no success.

Help!

Hi All,

Got this one solved....

FYI---Solution

1. Close application from the server side.

2. Find the main file or solution.

3. Repopulate your global field containers

4. Restart your server.

Hope this helps!

:

Consider using a preferences table to hold the interface. This is a one record table with the field data accessed via a X product or a constant to constant relationship. Then changes to the interface container can be made without taking the solution off the server.

Globals are designed to give individual users the same value over all records. In a networked setting, each user can have a different value.

When the field is set in a networked setting, upon re-entry into the program, the value of the field will always default back to the last setting made in a single user environment. This can be really useful if you want people to be able to change things, but only for the current session.But that same "feature" was what was giving you grief here.

No, that is not the solution.

There (obviously) should be no need to take down the file to change configuration. What if you want to change it again? What if you want to make user-specific changes? The solution is the preference table method suggested by David.
