Closing Forms in Version 6 SP1 classic client

maca

Twice today I have had to go into Task manager to close Navision because I could not get out of a form, the error message kept coming up (1 in a developed area the other in standard Nav).

So does anyone know how to close forms now the 'Close anyway' option does not come up?

This can happen if you put code that blocks the closing of a form.
OR when you have a lot of forms open and something like:

Form A opens form B that opens form C that open forms D.
You are on form A and try to close it. NAV refuses.
To solve it : use CTRL+TAB to cycle your forms and hit ESC to close it. If it does work, select another form. You need to find form D and first close this form.

Hi Thanks for the reply,

just checked before replying in case I was going mad.

What I'm trying to get at is version 6 sp1 classic works different to version 6 classic

try

Cash receipt journal (making sure no other forms are open) choose a customer which has no ledger entries (say a new customer making a payment on account) then drill down on the applies to id field, in version 6 SP1, you will not be able to close that form, where in version 6 it closes.

Have not tried elsewhere so maybe it's just a bug introduced with this version!!

Are you sure there are no customizations on the objects (or if they have the same customizations)?

Actually I tried the scenario described below and found it to be true.

It is locked by the message "customer ledger entry entry no. "0" does not exist".

I can ger out of this by removeing the filters via show all, then when i go back to do this it allows me to escape without having to remove the filters again. However if i close NAV and login to do the same thing again i get the same message. click x hoping to get the "close window anyway" message doesn't help as its locked by a Find statement

CustLedgEntry := Rec;
CustLedgEntry.LOCKTABLE;
CustLedgEntry.FIND;

I tried the same in 5.1 with no issues , all done in cronus.

And did you try clicking away the "customer ledger entry entry no. "0" does not exist"-message?
This should liberate all.
