 I am working in the report designer and trying to copy sampleEstimate to a new file.  However, whenever I try to save as with the estimate.line in the detail table 1, I receive the following error: Failed at Context = 138. Any thoughts?

Hi Colin, If we break things down, we see you’re already half way there. You already understand what you need and now I’m just here to help get you started. The beauty of Method is our users such as yourself can continue to quickly customize any screen (new or existing) and choose to make changes such as generating reports for ...

Wow, I'm confused.  It is possible to acces Quickbooks and complete Purchase Orders and Customer Sales Receipts. Okay, but how do I communicate this information to Customers and Suppliers? I undestand there is a print preview button in Invoices, but cannot find it in Sales Receipts or Purchase Orders. Nor can I figure how one customises ...

 Hi Greg, Currently there is no way to make the space between the text and the textbox smaller.  However, this is a feature we would definitely consider for future updates.  I’ll keep you posted if it becomes available. Thank you very much for the feedback!   -Amanda

As I leaked out earlier this week in my blog post The future of web apps: end-user web platforms, Method Warehouse is now available!  If you are already a user of Method Full Blown Edition, the news is even better: Method Warehouse is included in your monthly subscription (yes.....even the Method MRP Calculation!).   All you need to ...

I was wondering if there was a way to move the text over to be next to the text box on a new screen.  For example, I have 4 items I want accross the top of the screen.  I divide the screen into 4 spaces.  It looks like: Name                 ...

 Got it.  That's how I thought it worked but I couldn't get it to show up.  I had to log out and log back into Method and it showed up.  Unfortunately, I have been replacing my drop down lists when I needed to change something, now I know.   thanks,

Or am I misreading your post - since you replied to a post about grey out fields, I may have not understood the question? Are you asking how to edit a table of dropdown list values?  If so, you need to have a screen to edit those values. By default a screen should be created for you when you make a dropdown list, but if you don't have ...

Greg - That doesn't sound right to me.  If you created your own table and your own fields they shouldn't be disabled. What was the exact name of the table and the exact name of the field?  I'm wondering if perhaps you stumbled upon a "reserved" field or table name. Paul

 Why can't I edit a table I created?  I created a "drop down" list of error codes.  Now I have to edit that list or add to it and you're saying I have to recreate it! There must be another way.
