Thanks.

First I 'right-clicked' on the screen and switched to the default screen. When that didn't work, I went into screen designer and deleted my modified screen, leaving only the 'MACOLA' screen. I have seen similar 'issues' pop up on forms where fields have not made it through the upgrade process...

Sorry, my bad.. yes IM04S1 is correct. I did switch back to the default "MACOLA" screen set. That is the one that produces the square blocks in the fields and only allows navigation down to the ending document no. My only screen mod was to disable to purge field. Not a big deal, since it is...

We recently upgraded to Progression 7.6.400 SPB. It appears there were changes made to the Item transaction history screen (IM04SI). Our old modified screen did not work so I went back to the default screen. When I tab through the starting location the ending location is filled with square...

Kstickler, I don't doubt from a performance standpoint SQL with be much better than running on Pervasive. Unfortunately performance is not an issue. Lack of support for bug issues (2 year turn around on latest fix), poor customization environment (Flexibility - another oxymoron), most bug...

We haven't upgraded to SQL because I can't justify the cost. To spend $15k to $20k and still be stuck with an applicaton (Macola/Progression) that words cannot describe without expletives. If I were to upgrade now, I would also move to a new application. Since I am not ready to take the time...

Yes, there are a couple bug fixes. One was submitted over 2 years ago, so we have learned to live with it. We are still running on Pervasive 2000i so I get a little nervous each upgrade that we are going to have problems. Thanks for the feedback.

Has anyone installed 7.6.400 sp B yet? I don't really like being on the 'bleeding edge' with a new release. Appreciate any feedback. Thanks! Jim

Macola 7.6.400 spA Sorry, I wasn't very clear about what I'm trying to accomplish. We store the inventory storage location (i.e. bin, shelf, row) information in the picking sequence field in the item location file. I want to capture this information from the physical inventory tags to audit...

Hi, I have added a entry field to enter tag counts screen so we can enter the inventory location that the item was counted in. (we don't use multi-bin). When I try to change the tab order, I am unable to include my new field in the tab order, thus requiring a mouse click for the operator to...

Thanks Andy for the input. We are still using Pervasive (Btrieve), another reason for upgrading to SQL. I have held off upgrading since I am still not convinced it is worth spending any more money with Exact..... I won't go there. Thanks again to everyone for their feedback! Jim

I am setting the defaults with designer on fields that have a static default value. I am using flex to default fields that have values based on other fields. For example on tab 3 of item master I default order policy code and planning period with designer. I use flex to default the...

Thanks Macolahelp for explaining how hiding a field on one tab allows you to unhide it on another tab (like I said, I'm new to this, and the documentation is a bit sketchy). I was able to set the focus on the fields I want to set on tab 3 by using setTab and setFocus. It looks a little strange...

I am new to using flexibility and am trying simplify data entry by setting several field values. The problem I run into is setting the value of fields that are not on the current tab. For example, when adding a new item master record I would like to set some of the values on tab 3 of this...

Thanks - Works great! Appreciate the assistance.
