Nav 5SP1 crashes when trying to copy a C/SIDE function ...

Monsta

Navision 5SP1 crashes when trying to copy any C/SIDE function from older versions, for example, from Nav 4SP3

Open in ver.4 global variables of any object, select "Functions" tab, select one or more funcions defined there, copy. Then open similar window in nav 5sp1, and try to paste selected functions there. Navision crashes
Have tried on WinXP and Vista.

Does anyone know: is there a solution for the problem?

We have also experienced this problem, I put here some detailed infos for the hardcore NAV-programmers, maybe they can help:

Yes I have this problem too, I do not know any hotfix for that...

If anyone is able to get something out of that ... :shock: .

Anyway, I've tested it, and you're right. I've got the "bug" as well.

You could report this to Microsoft. Allthough I don't think that "copying versions from one version of NAV to the other" is going to be high on the priority-list.

In the mean time, you could just create the function, copy over the variables and copy over the C/AL code. Quite easy and fast.

cssgyula

Oh yes, but copying over C/AL Globals or locals also raise this exception...

Or take a fob of the objects of the old DB from which you want to copy. Create a new DB with the newest version and put the objects in it. Then you can copy without problems.

Waldo

OK, didn't try that ... (my client was crashed, you know ).

Thanks for your quick help!

Anyway, I have already submited this error as a Support Incident under PartnerSource, let's hope there will be a new build, which solves this problem.

Hi,

Why don't you have a look at the last platform update released by microsoft?

Does it mean you know there is a solution or you just trolling here?

Hi,

As I can see it's fixed in the last platform update.

Do you mean this:

When you copy a function, a variable, or a text constant in a database from one version of Microsoft Dynamics NAV to another version of Microsoft Dynamics NAV, Microsoft Dynamics NAV stops responding. This problem occurs if you select all the lines of the object that you want to copy in a form.

Where can I download update rollup? Haven't found a link :oops: These Microsoft sites are sometimes so complicated...
Anyone has tried after installing this update? Has the bug actually been fixed?

Bjarne_Astrup

Hi,

I had only tried to copy a function from 4.0 sp3 to 5.0 sp1 with and without the platform update.

Without the platform update the client crash and with the platform update the client don't crash.

You can only get the platform update if you ask Microsoft support.

Best Regards

I can confirm this.

Just click here to find the KB article. From there, you can obtain the Platform Update.

I will update the Platforum updates on my blog soon .
