Hi Sixtel,

Understand your points and pain. Names is prob. the most difficult part and most important part to get. It really helps to understand how QB uses and then its easier to translate to Method. It is an art at times. As partners, we all have struggled a bit with this area, so don't feel bad. But I know, it would be helpful to have a 'ref card' of sorts.

Hi!

I understand that there are probably reasons why this is not made available, but, it would be GREATLY beneficial to me if there was a stock database diagram I could look at that detailed the Method database.

While customizing I notice that I spend half of my time wading through tables and exporting data to try to figure out how things are related. As an example, I spent like 45 minutes trying to figure out how to get a go to.. button on a grid based on the customer table to work because I didn't get that the EntityRecord from the contacts table was just the RecordID of the customer table (which is where I was trying to copy my action from). Granted, I'm not really the quickest with all of this so someone more expierenced probably would have gotten that a lot sooner than I did.

I just thought I would ask.
