Hi All,

I have a form, using the code editor, I declare an amount type right in the beginning with below code

"Amount X;"

Then in its Datasource, in method validateWrite(),

I have a line "X = element.aFunction();"

Anyone know why when I debug to the line above and try to add a watch to the value of X the debugger says "error CS0120: An object reference is required for the non-static field, method, or property?

Hi prodev42,

Add "element" to watch and expand it. THere you should be able to see "X" and its value.

Thanks. I also notice similiar issue for extended table fields, I had to add the field extended_field to watch. Maybe it is something the editor can improve on.

Hi Prodev42,

It seems that you are calling a non static property from a static method.
