Now I remember hearing that this is the way objects work. I have a LOT to learn about objects and the occasional kick in the butt to get me on the right track again.

Re: 4D Write Pro Brain Cramp
Hi Tom, I suppose the problem is that you are copying the reference of your preference_object WP to [invoices] and not the wp content itself. This way ST Freeze is also modifying your original WP and in the next run of the loop there are no more references to be freezed. Afterwards your preferences object is probably not being saved, so won't notice the [preferences] record was modified. Could you try changing this line [Invoice]Invoice_WP:=[Preferences]Preference_Object to this: [Invoice]Invoice_WP:=ob copy([Preferences]Preference_Object) HTH Koen > Op 13 feb. 2019, om 18:34 heeft Tom Dillon via 4D_Tech <4d_tech@lists.4d.com> > het volgende geschreven: > > The first time through, the [Invoice] record has all the correct references > resolved.

4D Write Pro Brain Cramp
I know I'm missing something about 4D Write Pro involving ST Freeze Expressions. In a loop I create an [Invoice] record, assign an invoice template to the Write Pro object field ([Invoice]Invoice_WP:=[Preferences]Preference_Object) Call ST FREEZE EXPRESSIONS([Invoice]Invoice_WP) Save it. The first time through, the [Invoice] record has all the correct references resolved. The second time through, even though the fields being referred to have changed, the saved WP object field contains a copy of the same field from the first one. Basically this for a selection of [Client] records: For ($Ndx;1;Records in selection([Client]) Create Record ([Invoice]) < load, calc and assign needed stuff > [Invoice]Invoice_WP:=[Preferences]Preference_Object ST FREEZE EXPRESSIONS([Invoice]Invoice_WP) SAVE RECORD([Invoice]) NEXT RECORD([Client]) End for What am I missing?
