Strange FOR loop error

Alex_Chow

Hi Folks,

While compiling the standard unmodified Sales History (10157) report, I got the following error message:

---------------------------
Microsoft Dynamics NAV
---------------------------
The variable has the type Code. The counter in the FOR sentence should be a numeric, boolean, date, time or char variable. For example:

FOR Counter := 1 TO 10 DO ... ;

---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

I tried to use different executables (4.0 sp3, 5.0, 5.0sp1), but the problems still comes up. The problem seems to only reside in this database as all FOR statements will not compile properly.

Can anyone shed some light on this issue?

Did you verify that the 'Counter' variable is an integer?

Alex_Chow

Yes I did. This error even occurs for the standard unmodified Sales History report.

I exported the report and imported the report to another system, and it compiled fine.

Maybe counter is a field or function in the active record?

You, my friend, are a genius.

Oh, right... :oops:

Terrible grammer.

Unless his friend's name is "you"
