Few Questions about flowfields and timer

wilk_uwilk_u Member Posts: 94
Hello,
I will be very grateful for some information on these topics:
1. Does the table should display values in flowfields when run directly from designer, if so, what can cause it's not?
2. If table doesn't display anything, how the form can display values in these flowfields, is the calcfield function called in triggers a reason? Is there any other way to achieve having values (beside calcfield property)?
3. Can having some function in onTimer trigger cause strange behavior of the slider in the window, 'jumping' the list (especially with using currform.update), is there any workaround when I need to?

Regards

    Hi,

    1. I'm assuming you are running the table object from the Object Designer. Make sure your FieldClass is set to FlowField and the CalcFormula has a valid formula. Check out the Customer or Vendor tables, they have excellent examples to review.
    2. CALCFIELDS function updates FlowFields. FlowFields are automatically updated when they are the direct source expressions of controls, but they must be explicitly calculated when they are part of a more complicated expression. See Help files for more info
    3. Possibly (I think). What are you trying to do with this one?

    Thank You for the answer
    Thing about 1 and 2 is that, flowfields values in some table are empty, but they display correctly in one form, after calcfield.
    3 - toggles form inbound message visibility on some conditions
