nightdesigns Posted May 6, 2002 Posted May 6, 2002 I have this as a calculation (Today)- End Date to determine the age of an invoice. It doesn't always want to update properly. I often have to go into define fields double click on that field and okay my way back out and then it updates. Ideas? -j
reynir Posted May 6, 2002 Posted May 6, 2002 Hi. I have the same problem. We are running fm 5.5 on lan and the calculation fields that uses today function works on some computers and others not. It does not work either when I use Status(CurrentDate). We are using win NT4.0 and win2000Sp2. This started when we updated to fm 5.5. Any ideas to work around this? Best regards, Reynir.
Newbies autdesign Posted May 6, 2002 Newbies Posted May 6, 2002 Only a manual refresh or reopening the DB with work with Today. Luckily there is a simple fix. Change the formula to use Status(Current Date) and the problem will go away.
nightdesigns Posted May 6, 2002 Author Posted May 6, 2002 I had been using something like that and had issues so i had changed it to today. I put it in as you have it and i'll let you know how it works. -j
BobWeaver Posted May 6, 2002 Posted May 6, 2002 Even when using Status(CurrentDate), your calculation won't automatically update unless you have the storage option set to "do not store."
nightdesigns Posted May 6, 2002 Author Posted May 6, 2002 That's definatly a "duh" moment. Makes sense, figuring everything will work now. Thanks again Bob!
