Re: Screen designer

Thanks David,
We opened a defect 8635 yesterday about the tool forcing to fill in file
and record on DB references.

The other problem, if I understand you correctly, is if you have specified
the DB on the file-level REF keyword then the field properties browse does
not find the field. In your case, the file was a logical file. I will
ask my colleague to try to reproduce that.

Take care

Back again in screen designer cos I'm stupid.

Typical situation : you take an existing dspf and you modify it. Now, I
need to change a load of reference fields. The referenced field Library,
File and Record is not shown, only the referenced field name. If you change
it, you have to fill all the other information, otherwise it will not be
resolved. If I do go to the trouble of browsing to my data dictionnary, it
is not shown in the list of files. I wonder if this is because it's a
logical file and SD is expecting a physical. The name of the data
dictionary is specified at file level.

So you give a new tool one shot?

One thing you _believe_ it doesn't handle as well as SDA and
you've given up?

I didn't expect this from you David.
