Breakpoint causes java Null Pointer Exception

I can no longer use the debugger. This started after some time of successful use. If I put a Breakpoint in a Process, as soon as that process is called the program terminates with Internal Error Reason: java.lang.NullPointerException Looking at the details adds nothing to this message. I have to cra...

data export cvs files

Hi, Can anyone give me a lead on the best way to achieve this please. I thought that I had it done, just by exporting a query to a spreadsheet, I even gave my Business Object the exact right attribute names to match the import requirements. It did not work because it messed up the headings. The attr...

Presentation Rules not triggered on Refresh

I have a field which is acting as a checksum to ensure the user makes entries which add up to ZERO. This has a display property to display the background as RED if the amount is not ZERO. During the course of entry the program recalculates the field and the system performs a refresh (defined in Form...

calculations in group sections of reports

group sum can be obtained by <<SUM bo.attrb>> and setting the Evaluation Property to the appropriate group. But how can to get a percentage? <<SUM bo.attrb1 *100/sum bo.attrb2>> seems logical but doesn't work Neither does the much less likely and illogical <<SUM (bo.attrb1 *100 / bo.attrb2)>> Anyone...

Re: Passing parameters to sub-reports

I have given up on this.

I am now directing the Print operation to a process which populates a temporary business object with the details I need for the cross summary, goes on to produce the report. The subreport finds all in the temporary table and sorts them.

It works, but isn't it clunky??

Re: Passing parameters to sub-reports

OK - I have to come clean - I was simplifying the process to try to make things clear. It is more complicated. We have a number of products, each product is bespoke and each has Cost Quote from multiple sources. But products are grouped and we can't place an order with the factory for some of the pr...

Re: Passing parameters to sub-reports

Sorry - that was careless error. I should have said

FIND orderline WHERE orderline IN branch.orderline AND orderline.status = 'Unfulfilled' ORDER BY orderline.customer

Passing parameters to sub-reports

This must be a common requirement. Without going into details, I am presenting a report with line details which refer to all orders for a branch; grouped by customer showing product. At the end I want a summary for each product. I FIND all the records of outstanding orders for the Branch and order t...

Re: Displaying Updated totals after inline editing

I thought that this issue had been resolved, but when I came to implement the necessary changes to my project I ran into yet another brick wall. Eventually I found the source of the problem and was able to duplicate it in the attached NEW2.bsv. To refresh memories, I have and OrderHeader and OrderlI...

Re: Displaying Updated totals after inline editing

Brilliant - Thank you.

I have my test working, though at this stage I am not sure what the critical feature(s) might be.

I am pretty sure that the two way relationship is critical. Did I miss this on Vlad's video?

Thank you so much for all your effort and time.

Colin
