Time Sheet Header  OnOpenPage

TimeSheetLine.Setrange("TimeSheet No.","No.");
TimeSheetLine.SetCurrentKey(Answer Question1);
IF (TimeSheetLine.findFirst) and (TimeSheetLine.Status = TimeSheetLine.Status::open)Then
   FirstElemenet := TimeSheetLine."TimeSheet No.";

IF (TimeSheetLine.findLast) and (TimeSheetLine.Status = TimeSheetLine.Status::open)Then
   LastElemenet := TimeSheetLine."TimeSheet No.";

    Add a new key with only field Status and then use that in SETCURRENTKEY, before the SETRANGE so your code should look like the below

    TimeSheetLine.RESET;

    TimeSheetLine.SETCURRENTKEY(Status);

    TimeSheetLine.SETRANGE("Time Sheet No.","No.");

    TimeSheetLine.SETRANGE(Status,TimeSheetLine.Status::Open);

    IF TimeSheetLine.FINDSET THEN

    REPEAT

    /// Add your logic here

    UNTIL TimeSheetLine.NEXT = 0

    hello Suresh,

    Why i get this error in this Code

    ---------------------------
    Microsoft Dynamics NAV Development Environment
    ---------------------------
    A variable is expected. For example :

    MyVar
    Customer.Name
    ---------------------------
    OK
    ---------------------------

    TimeSheetLine.RESET;

    TimeSheetLine.SETCURRENTKEY(Status);

    TimeSheetLine.SETRANGE(TimeSheetLine."Time Sheet No.","No.");

    TimeSheetLine.SETRANGE(TimeSheetLine.Status,TimeSheetLine.Status::Open);

    IF TimeSheetLine.FINDSET THEN

     REPEAT

      EXIT(TSHeader."No.");

     UNTIL TimeSheetLine.NEXT = 0;

    Have you declared time sheet line and tsheader as variables ? If ou don't declare them and try to use them you will get that error
