I am having a problem with the browse object not seeming to work properly.
It will return ALL records just fine, however I never seem to get any records returned when I try to search by any of the search fields.
For instance if I launch the browse dialog and hit Enter it returns all rows however if I try to filter by name starts with A it returns no results. Any ideas on what i mat be missing?
Thanks
I see the problem. This issue has been fixed and can be downloaded in the pre-release or if you wait another day we will have the "official" 1.4 released. The problem that you are having is that your field is a fixed length string instead of a variable length field (i.e. VarChar). When this happens, the field contents actually has spaces at the end, which produces a search that doesn't match.
We have already fixed this issue to take into account fixed length character fields. If you want to fix to day, you can download the Pre-Release. But it has been resolved and this is why we have been chasing our tails
After looking at the trace i thought the issue was because of the Field type so changed it to see what would happen and bingo it worked as advertised. Glad it is resolved in the new build.
By the way great framework glad to see something like this in .Net. I have been showing it off like a new car. I plan on re-writing / converting a fox 2.6 app with this so talk about bells and whistles to the current users.
Nikki, I am truly excited about having you as a new user. Thank you for your kind words. We too are excited about the framework and its future. It is users like you that makes it all worth while!
StrataFrame is a great tool to migrate forward for VFP users. Let me know if you need any help on that front. Thanks again.
