Form ReferenceGroup control does not show value

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by GoDev99 17
Hello,
 
when I select lookup value from a Reference Group control in a Create dialog form, control does not show selected value.
However, Reference Group control tied to the same Datasource and Reference Field but on Main form, value is correctly shown.
 
In Create Dialog Form lookup for Group Id field shows up normally
After selection, value of Group Id field is empty
SAme field with Reference Group in another Main form works properly:

    Hi,

    Can you show us the code you did for both (if there is any)

    Also can you take a screenshot of the properties of the two controls?

    I have doublechecked all REference Group related documents but couldn't find why it's not working. EVerything seems correctly set up. See details below. There is no code. Thank you!

    Hi all,

    the problem was solved by putting Auto Search property on a FormDataSource was set to Yes (default).

    I also discovered that by putting a Replacement key property of the table to empty value also fixes the problem even with Auto Search property on a FormDataSource set to No.

    It seems that there is a bug in a framework.

    Thx
