Hi Dave: This is the problem:
This.txtId.controlsource = "This.odata.id" Because from the txtId control perspective, it haven't any "odata" property when evaluates "this.odata" (or "my.odata" looking from txtId), and that's why thisform works. You may use this: This.txtId.controlsource = "This.parent.odata.id" 2016-10-24 9:26 GMT+02:00 Dave Crozier <[email protected]>: > Gentlemen, > I have a weird problem that I have solved but not using the way I wanted > it to work: > > > 1.
