Dennis,
I don't understand how you are using this form.  Is it for order entry or file maintenance?
 
I don't know if this will help you but I use this eep (in a bit button) to duplicate most of the data in a row to create another row.
 
getPROPERTY vSeqNo TEXTVALUE 'Aseq'
set var RowNum int = (int(.Aseq))
sel Qno,PartNo,pdesc  into aQno,aPartNo,Adesc  +
   from QuoteDtl where SeqNo = .RowNum
insert into QuoteDtl Qno,PartNo,pdesc values .aQno,.aPartNo,.Adesc
property table QuoteDtl 'refresh'
return

Thanks Bernie.

In a scrolling region, if I have a component Id of Equipment_Description for a variable, and I use getproperty to lookup the right description to place it on the form, my experience is that it will put it in all the rows. And, it is an FK table so the same equipment number can be on multiple rows.
I'll try it again.

Dennis,
Sorry, I meant to say form variable (have reports on my brain)
But if you get the part no by using the getproperty, then it shouldn't duplicate the description into other rows. Assuming of course, that your part no is unique in the form.

Bernie,

This was a form, not a report. The problem I have had in the past with Getproperty is that it propagates the variable into every row with that component id. But thanks anyway.

Instead of a report variable, use an eep based on the entered value of Equip_number.
Set a component id in the Equip_Number property.
use GETPROPERTY vNo TEXTVALUE 'vPartNo'
in your eep where vNo is the component id and vPartNo will contain the text value of  Equip_Number.
Then you can do a select to get the description.
Then use PROPERTY TABLE <FormTableName> 'REFRESH'

Subject: [RBG7-L] - Scrolling Region behavior


Looking for a workaround to avoid "slot machine" behavior for variable look ups.

Scrolling region rows have two popup dbedit values and form flashed through all possible values for a different variable after popup is selected and you move to the next row, making form run very slow. In from Variables:

vEquipDesc = Equip_Desc in Equipment where Equip_Number = Equip_Number

After selecting the popup value for a different column in the row and moving to the next row, all possible values for vEquipDesc are displayed on the row you just left.

Anyone else observe this behavior and/or have a fix/workaround?

TIA,

Dennis
