Update Parent Browse after changes in Child Browse
« on: September 05, 2015, 11:33:37 PM »
I know I have seen a thread on this subject but I cannot find it.
I have a ParentBrowse
One of the fields displayed on the browse is a status
The Browse has a ChildBrowse which displays filtered records based on a linking field.
If I change a record in the the ChildForm I do some checking and if certain criteria are met I open the ParentFile in postUpdate and change the status.
All this works as expected, the status displayed in the ChildBrowse after returning is correct (I have checked "Refresh whole browse after change"), but the ParentBrowse is not refreshed.
Re-selecting the menu choice refreshes the ParentBrowse which then displays the correct information
How do I refresh the ParentBrowse after changes made in the ChildForm?

go to the webinars, No.49  http://www.capesoft.com/accessories/NetTalkUserGroup.htm
to hear the master speak.

Basically if you look at your parent Browse / Children Tab
You will find an option  "ON CHILD UPDATED"
You want to set the refresh to redo the row, or the whole browse.

HINT  - WHen I cant remember these things I go to the NT User Group page (link is above) and search for say "parent" and I found this article mentioned in show 49

Hope this helps

Thanks Kevin
That's it. I remembered that I had heard mention of it but I couldn't remember where.
I tried searching in this newsgroup but the results seemed to have little relationship to the query, or more accurately the keywords I used didn't seem to have any relationship to the displayed threads.
