Frank: I vaguely recall something like this happening to me years ago. The workaround was to get the DBA to change the database view to contain a space character when the data would have been null. If it's a numeric column, we asked the DBA to put zero instead of null.
Maybe this would work for you? --Phil -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Frank Caruso Sent: Friday, April 06, 2012 08:59 To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Column Sort on Vendor Form ARS 7.6.04 sp2 Oracle / Redhat Created a vendor form using the ARDBC LDAP connection with about 30 fields. The form opens correctly (User Tool and Midtier) and I can run queries against it. I can also click on a results list column heading and sort the results. However, when I try and sort on a column where one of the result records has no value (NULL, empty string) value for the field being sorted the plugin crashes and I get this error: Cannot establish a network connection to the AR System Plug-In server : abcd-123 ARSYS.ARDBC.LDAP : RPC: Miscellaneous tli error - System error (Connection refused) (ARERR 8760) Anyone else seen this issue?
