Hi ,

As i know many ways to retain position on form but now the case is different. In my case , I am transferring lines from Form1 to Form 2. So i wrote code on Form1 (Button Clicked method) . At the end of the code , i have written like this :

Line1 : Form2_ds.research(true); // to view the records on form2 those are transferred. Line2: form1_ds.next() ; // to get the cursor on next record on current form

but when lines get transferred , cursor goes to first record of Form1 instead of next record.

Note: when i comment "Line1" the cursor comes on next record but i am not able to see transferred record on form2.

looking for your suggestion.

Thanks

My guess based on you commenting out Line1 and the position moving correctly

Can it be that you have a dynalink between the two forms? So depending on which record is selected in Form1, only corresponding records are shown in Form2?

Have you tried swapping the Line1 and Line2 statements?

Can you tell us what you think your code does?

Why do you research a datasource for a different table (CustInvoiceTable) than where you inserted the data (CustInvoiceLine)?

A few remarks about your code:

Business logic such as includeTrans() shouldn't be implemented on forms. Yo

Consider validating records before inserting them to database.

To get selected records, you can use the MultiSelectionHelper class.

So if I got it right from the screenshots, you are calling research() on the parent form data source.

Meaning it will always reset the position of the record in your child data source. That's expected.

Maybe you want to replace the research with

formDataSource.reread();

formDataSource.refresh();

LocalDataSource_ds.next();

instead

That might work better for you

RE: Retain Position On next record on Form

Hello Ivan,

I replaced my code with your code :

formDataSource.reread();

formDataSource.refresh();

LocalDataSource_ds.next();

Now cursor goes to next record on form1 , thats perfect but record are not shown to form2 and when i press F5 on form2 manually then records are visible.

looking for your suggestion further please

Thanks
