variables in worksheet page - delay in updating

Reinhard

Hello,

I've got a Worksheet page. At the top, before the Repeater, I have a couple of variables, let's say for example a Text variable called "Name"

When I change the Name from "A" to "B" it works fine.
As I start moving through different lines in the worksheet, each time the Name shows "A" for about one second before updating to "B"

This only happens the first time I go to a record. If I revisit, the Name displays correctly instantly.

Your help is appreciated feel free to ask me for more info...

By "repeater" you mean...?

Repeater is the subtype of the group where you put lists: design page 291 to find out.
anyway, i think there's some custom code under the onaftergetrecord that calculates the value of the textfield, and this code makes some calculations elapsing about one second...what's the code in the onaftergetrecord(or similar) trigger?

Well, I know what a repeater subtype is, just wanted to get confirmation that this is what he meant (it could also be a repeat/until function...).

It is a Repeater Group.

The text field is not being calculated on after get record.

My good old friend CurrPage.UPDATE(FALSE) does the trick...

and where is it calculated? :?

Reinhard

The text field is initialized On Open Page.
However at any time the user can edit this field. When the field is edited, that's when I had the problem, where as you move through the lines, it keeps showing the old value for about one second, before updating and showing the new one.
Adding a CurrPage.UPDATE(FALSE) fixed the problem.

Thanks for the suggestions though. Happy Halloween!
