Hi,

I'm using GP extender with the employee card to track additional info for employee

just realised that a user updated the extender additional info, when i deleted the updated record, saved and exit, then i open the same form i found that it brought back the previous info before the update.

Does extender keep the history for the previous records? is there a settings for that

Also I have a query that retrieve the employee info + extender info

I noticed that there is multiple records returned by the extender query

Thanks for any help

Hi Alaa

When setting up the Extender window it is important to go to the options and link the record to the table activity.

This will ensure that if the master record is deleted the extender fields will also delete.

If not they remain as phantom records and if you reuse the master key the old data will redisplay.

This should not be done on transactions whereby the records get deleted from the open files to be written in history files.
