Your logic sounds correct to me, Rod.  Are you able to get the Character Function action to work using this logic?  Regards,

Hey guys - one thing I'll add before going further on that is check the table the dropdown is going to.  Make sure the values are unique. Since you are using the API, I could see you doing something like creating a new table, populating it with all the values and creating a dropdown in another table that references this new table.  ...

Hmmm....hard to say what the original problem was.  We were getting a few error messages from the API, after it was first released, which we were quickly able to solve.  Not sure if those errors had anything to do with you, so we'll keep an eye on it. For the customer screen, yes, it is confusing.  Since the Customer is ...

Hi Matt, We were looking into this over the weekend and it appears from initial review that there may be some corruption in your database.  If you don't mind, can you please create a user for me and send me the info in a private email so we can go in there and clear your database of any corrupted files? Thanks!

Is there anything special that needs to be done when updating a dropdown field? I've tried passing both the field value and the recordID in the array and either way I get an error that says "xxx could not be found as a possible value to insert. Please check the spelling. " Any ideas? Thanks,

Paul, I Deleted all the fields nad tables I created through the API and tried it again, now I'm not having any problems. Got me?   On a related note (I think, because I didn't notice it until after using the create table and create field calls).... When I go to customize the customerlist screen, there are fields available to put ...

 Kristopher,  I actually got the Character function idea from you as an answer to "Creating a Subset."  Maybe the best way to handle this would be to test my logic of what this function does.  Select value: Action Result ArmAcct  (The data to start the process) action: Yes?No: starts with ?  Yes/No: ...

Hi Rod, We probably won't be able to reply to this until early next week, but we will put this in priority sequence for response and in the meantime maybe you can provide us with a bit more info.  We appreciate you listing the info you entered into the wizard, trust me that helps us immensely!  What is the ultimate goal ...

I have created a Character Function with the following information: Select Value:  Action Result  ArmAcct action:  Yes/No: starts with ?  Yes/No: starts with ?  Type In Armenian Action Result name: ArmError After saving it and opening it back up the information has changed to: Yes/No: starts with ?  Action ...

Hey Matt - Both Peter and I tried it here and couldn't duplicate the problem. Everything worked fine on our end with no messages. Was it a certain table you were having problems with, or all tables? Does it happen every time? Paul
