I noticed that you haven't really had an answer to your dilemma with the
Date/Time picker defaulting to the last row entered when you enter a series
of rows.

The problem of course is that that control does not have a default value
option as a DBEdit does. I haven't tried this, but I wonder if it would work
for you.

1.  Place a VARIABLE date/time picker on the form, fDate.
2.  In your program:

  SET VAR fDate DATE = NULL
  SET VAR fDate = (the date you want as the default on the FIRST row in the
series of records entered)
  ENTER formname.

3. On your form, create an expression:

  DateCol = .fDate

  where DateCol = the date column name

If this doesn't do it, let me know and we might need to play with the
PROPERTY TEXTVALUE command to make it work.

questions


Configuration file question:
I'm having a problem saving a change to my R:BASE 7 configuration file
on my network computer.  This problem does not affect all R:BASE users
on our network (only 2) and does not happen on my laptop.  If I make a
change to the configuration under the display tab by checking ERROR
MESSAGES and STATUS MESSAGES then save the changes, the changes are in
effect while that session of R:BASE is open.  If I close and reopen
R:BASE the changes have been lost.  I checked to see if I had multiple
copies of RBENGINE.CFG on my C drive.  I did have three extra copies
from R:BASE conference presentations so I renamed them and tried to edit
my configuration file again.  It still is not saving my changes.  What
am I missing?

Where Builder question:
Is there a way to get the columns in the Where Builder sorted in
alphabetical order?

DUPROW.EEP question:
My database users are complaining about having to re-enter the date on
each row of data when using the date/time picker on a form.  I found a
reference to an eep called DUPROW in an email on the list back in
November.  Perhaps that will help me.  Where can I get a copy of that
eep?



Thanks!
Cheryl
