Am I understanding the question correctly? Did you change 1 : INTEGER vZID = ZID to 1 : INTEGER vZID = (.vZID)
To store the current value in the column ZID to vZID use 1 : INTEGER vZID = (ZID) ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tom Frederick Posted At: Friday, February 15, 2008 10:02 AM Posted To: RB7-L Conversation: Variables and () Subject: [RBASE-L] - Variables and () I have run into a situation I can easily fix but do not understand what happened. Using V8 with the most recent updates. In my examples below ZID is an integer ID# and .vZID is the integer variable version. I have used these examples for months. They have always worked and both follow the examples in the manuals. Example 1 : COMPUTE ZXYZ AS COUNT ZID FROM Z_Identity_Info WHERE ZID = .vZID AND ZResid = 'Home' Example 2 (form variables) : 1 : INTEGER vZID = ZID 2 : TEXT vZFName = ZFName IN Z_Identity_Info WHERE ZID = .vZID 3 : TEXT vZLName = ZLName IN Z_Identity_Info WHERE ZID = .vZID 4 : TEXT vZName = (.vZFName & .vZLName) In the last week, these same lines stopped working until I changed .vZID to (.vZID) this morning. Once the changes were made the programs took off and ran like usual. The Valentines update was installed and when (.vZID) is returned to .vZID, it stops working again. This no real problem (except the editing to be done), but I do not understand what might have changed. If this is simply a tightening of options then OK. Is there something else I just do not see?
