Hi all, 4D v15.2 & 4D 15.4 (Mac)
It looks like 4D’s Query EDITOR (the one most of my users hate) has some issues. I’d like to confirm if others are seeing them. Here’s what broke for us: 1. The app has a convention of default dates being set as “03/03/0300”. It goes back to late 80”s and needing a non-null value that was obvious to them. Anyway… This appears to be changed to “03/03/300” which I guess still works fine for them. This has always worked for them up through 4D v12… I upgrade them to 4D v15 and this has been an issue. I believe it will allow us to us to type the date value in and even query on it. But when we save a query and then reload it the date is changed to “00/00/00”. So somewhere in the saving or in the loading 4D transform it into a bad date format. Of course we could try and remember whenever we use a query to change this default value but that’s what saving a report is for. Create it, get it working, save it and then forget about how it works and just use it. 2. It looks like 4D will correctly save a query with the popup set to “AND or “OR” values. But if you then reload and change them and re-save them it looks like 4D either ignores them or doesn’t update them. Is anyone else seeing this issue? If the new query editor worked perfectly it would still be disliked by most users. But with these bugs it’s almost intolerable. But before I go through reporting them as bugs I want to make sure I’m not issuing anything. BTW, it looks like Miyako’s version works correctly. Might just go with his Query component. Thanks for your help, John... ********************************************************************** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) FAQ: http://lists.4d.com/faqnug.html Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: http://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:[email protected] **********************************************************************
