This is a very simple thing to check. Is the list order different on the
two servers for what I think is a selection field. If this is a
selection field, the search is on the zero based value rather than the
actual words. If the order is reversed, then Active could be 0 and
Inactive could be 1 or vice versa. If they are reversed, then you will
get the opposite results.

Just a thought!

Subject: Push Field not happening

Hello Everyone,

We have employee records stored in a "PAY:Employee" form.  The Status is
either "Active" or "Inactive".  The employees each have a unique
"Employee e-ID" field.  The problem is that some of our employees are,
alas, no longer with us, so we want to mark their Statuses as "Inactive?

So we have a control panel with a table that displays all the "Active"
records.  The "Employee e-ID" value is listed in an "Employee e-ID col"
column.  The user hi-lites the rows he wants to make inactive, and
clicks a "De-Activate" button.  This calls an active link that calls a
guide that loops the table.  For each hi-lited record an "inner" active
link pushes the value "Inactive" to the record where 'Employee e-ID' =
$EmployeeEid col$.  The main active link then refreshes the table, and
the hi-lited records disappear.  If you display them they have indeed
been changed to "Inactive".

At least that is the way it worked in our test system.  We have now brot
everything over to the live system, and all the active links fire, and
the log shows the link pushing the "Inactive" value to the desired
records.  BUT the records don't get updated.  They do not disappear from
the table and when you display them their Status is still "Active."

I ran a filter log just in case some other workflow was setting the
Status back again, but it wasn't.  Besides, the "Last Modified Date" is
not getting set. I inserted a message into the "inner" active link to
print out the "Employee e-ID col" and it is correct.  But the Push
Fields is simply not happening.  I am running as Administrator, so it
can't be a permissions issue.

Any ideas?
