November 21, 201114 yr Hi, I have a script that creates a master job and then in a related table creates 'sub jobs'. I have a table layout that shows all the records are in the sub job table with correct foreign keys for the master job table. The relationships are stated correctly and I have allowed the creation of records in the 'edit relationship' dialog. However when I view the portal in the master job layout I can see the multiple rows for the sub jobs but some of the data is not showing in the portal??? I've checked the height of the fields to ensure they are not outside of the portal, but can't think what else could be the problem. This is turning into a serious pain in the *&^* and it's kept me busy for a couple of hours now. Any ideas ... probably something simple but I can't see it!! Help ....
November 21, 201114 yr Hi there, Simon UK! Is only the last row not showing its data? Or is it specific fields within your rows? A screen shot of the portal in layout mode would be very helpful here. :^) Added ... if only the last row then that is how 'allow creation' displays so User can begin typing into the last row to create new record.

November 22, 201114 yr Author Hi LaRetta, It's only specific fields that are not showing. I've tried recreating the portal but it doesn't help. How do I add a screen shot here? Simon OK worked it out here is the screen shot ... Any ideas would be gratefully received!
November 22, 201114 yr Thank you, Simon, but I cannot tell anything from Browse mode; maybe others have ideas by looking at it but it helps to see it in layout mode. Is that a repeating field or individual fields? Can you provide screen shot in layout mode for us?
November 22, 201114 yr Author LaRetta, Found solution and now I feel very very stupid ! I don;t know how but some mysterious tab control found it's way onto my layout. I decided to 'select all' to make nothing was obscuring the portal and there it was, with tabs set to 0 pixels otherwise I could have spotted it. Really sorry to waste your time on this but I appreciate your efforts to help me solve this. A junior mistake I hopefully won't make again. Best regards, Simon
November 22, 201114 yr I believe I hold the record for junior mistakes and senior mistakes as well, Simon. It was not a waste of my time at all.
November 22, 201114 yr Author You're very kind, thank you. I can now at last get some sleep, it's just coming up to 1am.
