    Parameter Default Values

    Thanks for the replies. I have actually found another option. In the 'Edit Parameter Field' screen, under the prompting text, I used an sql query and it updates the dropdown automatically. The statement looks like this: Select ID To Display [SELECT DISTINCT ClientID FROM client_table] There...

    Loop returning boolean value

    Actually, I just found the problem. With the nature of our databases, this, to me, is a strange occurence, but tends to be a normal situation for us. I was hard-coding the code assignment: local stringvar code := tablename.value; It did not like this because there was at least 1 record that...
