USERID not returning value

lloydf

I have added a userid field to the comment line table so that I can store the userid of the user who added the comment.
I ammended the SetUpNewLine function however the USERID function does not return any value.
Any advice as to how I may acheive this would be much appreciated.

SetUpNewLine()
CommentLine.SETRANGE("Table Name","Table Name");
CommentLine.SETRANGE("No.","No.");
CommentLine.SETRANGE(Date,WORKDATE);
IF NOT CommentLine.FIND('-') THEN BEGIN
Date := WORKDATE;
UserID:=USERID;
END

Navision is not case sensitive. So USERID is interpreted by the compiler as UserID field from Rec.
I suggest changing the field to "User ID". Notice the blank space before ID.

I'm surprised that it doesn't error out when you try to assign a system variable.

The field name has higher priority than Keyword it means that it is assigning the field into itself, not the system variable into system variable...

Use:

UserID:=DATABASE.USERID;

It's bad practice to name fields after reserved words. Standard Navision uses "User ID". I would rename the field.

"User ID" := USERID;

That's what we use too.
I just seems logical that this be standard.
I know you can Zoom, but why?

In fact we've added

Enabled	Field No.	Field Name	Data Type	Length	Description
Yes	50001	User ID	Code	20	
Yes	50002	User Name	Text	30

Why look at the code when you can see the name O:)
