Boolean resetting itself

Mauddib

I have a temporary table in a report. Its a temporary table of Type Purchase Header. And I am populating it with data from a few places. At one point i have this code:

PHead."Document Type" := PHead."Document Type"::Order;
PHead."No." := "Purch. Rcpt. Header"."Order No.";
IF PHead.INSERT(FALSE) THEN BEGIN
PHead."Completely Received" := TRUE;
MESSAGE(FORMAT(PHead."Completely Received"));
PHead.MODIFY(FALSE);
MESSAGE(FORMAT(PHead."Completely Received"));
PHead.FIND;
MESSAGE(FORMAT(PHead."Completely Received"));
END;

The messages that I get are Yes. Yes. No.

Why, in between the modification and re-retreiving the record from my Temp table does this field reset itself to False?

I think your FIND command finds another record. Do PHead.GET(PHead."Document Type",PHead."No.") and try again, that code should work fine as far as I can see.

Check a few things:
-There may be no filters on "PHead" for doing a FIND (or FIND('=') ). (But I don't think this is the problem)
-If your field "Completely Received" is a flowfield, this is normal, because it is always recalculated.

Sorry lads i wasnt with it yesterday at all. Not thinking straight. It is not a flowfield or anything, its normal. But there was a formula futher down the properties which I didnt notice.

Funnily the formula thats there doesnt actually give the correct value, but thats another days work.
