Dear all,

I tried to put currForm.UPDATE within a function called 'update()' in a form
but system return me an error 'the form does not recognize control 1000xxxx2'.
Or even i put currForm.ControlName.UPDATE i still get the error msg.
Any idea?

    check your controls if there is a textbox or a lable with this id or with this id in property ParentControl
    Do you make it right, it works too!

    create the control new or set the parentcontrol to the id that is the parent control.
    It'Äs easier to create the damaged control new with using the Field Menu.
    Check before if there are some source behind the control <- that u must also copy

    Hi Garak/all,

    FYI, in my form comprising of subform and few controls.
    And i noted my subform which i assign name property = 'mySubform' and also 1 of the control that i assigned as 'g_total' created the problem.
    If i remove the name property compiler won't returning me error and the form can open properly.

    Just wonder how come when i used currForm.UPDATE, i've to remove the value under control->name property. :|
