Hi Ben, I have a second issue. It appears that the workaround mentioned initially on this post that you confirmed was the only way to get a Table loop to work (run table loop, assign loop's recordID to AR, use AR in a Retrieve value from Table action) no longer appears to work. Instead, all the values I try to retreive from the table ...

I am receiveing this weird message  During one of my set of actions. The screen has been copied. You can find it in the Reports app(previously called Archives). It is called "Unable To Parse Expression Bug".  THis bug took me all day to work on before I finally gave up. It is very odd. Oddly enough, If I put a ...

Hi Mahlon, I too am finding this issue problematic. You may not be able to use this workaround, but I have found one that works for me. Instead of doing a Loop Through Table, I made a grid with the filtering, sort and values I want, hid it, and the ran a Loop Through Grid action on that grid, which does respect the grids sort order.

Hi Ben, I have found a specific scenario in which I am having an issue. It appears, as mahlonf has postefd about (https://www.method.me/cs/forums/t/9581.aspx), that the Loop through Table Action's Order By setting does not work at all. regardless of what is selected, the results return in RecordID order. This is problematic because I want ...

Ok, good to know that I am not doing something wrong. Just to clarify, the way I am doing it (use get RecordID from loop, use it to retreive values from table)is currently the best way to do so? I have a setup on the same screen I mentoned above that demonstrates how I am doing it.

I have a Screen, Loop Issue, on the Reports app that demonstrates my issue. I have one button that performs a grid loop(on a grid that has no views/filters), which worked just fine, returning six values. I have it set to show a message each time for easy counting. Right next to it I have a button that performs a loop through ...

That fixed it! thanks again

One more question:  How do I pre-populate the contact dropdown on my quotes page when a user clicks the new button for quotes in the app ribbon on the contacts screen?

That was what I was missing! Thanks Ben!

I am trying to get an app ribbon working for the Quotes app. I think I have everything set up properly. On the contacts app I get a proper count  but clicking on that app in the ribbon brings an error popop. I will also need to know how to setup app ribbon New buttons, as asked on this forum ...
