I have an AGS call to update a custom form. The form works with no problem. But when I have it in another form and trying to use an AGS call to add a record - it doesn't work. So I added some additional code to check the error after the call. The alert comes back with 'undefined' for the value of sReturnStatus. Here is my code:        // add new record         //Construct DME string for adding record     agsCall = portalWnd.AGSPath '_PDL=' strPDL         agsCall = '&_TKN=X...

I have a drop down text box on a customized form. As of now it shows a huge listing of values that the user can select. I would like to have them only see certain values (let's say 5 of them). Does anyone know how I can hardcode these values such that they are all the user will see Thanks in advance

Any idea how to disable typing in a listbox and force users to pick from the list.  I understand I can data validate later.

I was asked to add PO line number to the form and that was easy but when I inquiry on the form and it returns data any line after the last record shows a zero in the po line number field.  Anyone know how to suppress the zero  I could write some code but I was hoping that I was just missing something easy.

We are in the process of upgrading to V10. We have numerous custom design studio forms that use dme calls to populate a list box on the form. Under V9 the sample code below populates the list box beautifully. On V10 the same code does not function. The DOM getElementById returns a null, we worked around that and got rid of the errors but it will not populate the list box. Has any one else run into issues with Design Studio form list boxes under V10 and would you be willing to share your w...

I have a screen in DS which contains multple buttons.  I would like to have multiple onClick events (one for each button) .... How do I segrate the onClick events such that each button knows what OnClick function to use ... This one is killing me

I'm having an issue where after adding a record to a custom table, a hidden screen variable is not populating without the user doing a manual inquire.   I need this field to refresh immediately after the record(s) are written because it's value is being used to populate an index field (PAC-LN-NBR for PACOMMENTS). I realize that as a last ditch effort I could do a DME for the value, but I would prefer not to incur the overhead involved in doing so if the client wishes to add numerous commen...

I have a modified form of PR35.2. It has the box checked for 'Default Presentation'. Whenever I modify a form and make it the default presentation, I always add an '*' at the end of the Title in the form properties. That way, it's very easy to know if a form has been modified in some way (since it's not always obvious). It is also save with a custom form id of 'PR35.2_CUSTOM' In any case, this has occurred now several times: After saving the form, doing a clear IOS cache, restarting the b...

Has anyone uploaded a file from a local computer to the lawson server using an Attach button on a design studio form We are trying to find options to upload files (similar to how we would use the browse and attach feature in outlook or yahoo) to move the file from our local PC to the Lawson server. We are unable to create the code to pick from the our PC and move to the server. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

In my portal page I have two objects, data query and a formlet with custom pa42.1 My dme query queries the WFMATRICS-table and display job requisitions approved by a user currently logged in, Then I click on a row and capture the key-string(company requisition) in the variables. Var1=company and Var2=requisition How do I link these variables to formlet so it can automatically populate custom pa42.1

When designing a new UI for a screen, is there a way to determine where a field is already being used as a data source We have an older modified version of a PO20 that has the xref-vendor on it, but it does not appear to be in the current PO20 list of available data source field values. Can I find where it might be being used presently, and whether it is being used elsewhere or not, is there a way that I can 'add' it to the PO20 so it can be used here Thank you.

Anyone have a suggestion on how to build in a one to two second delay in a form's script Basically I have a user enter a parameter, then fireoff a Process Flow. The Process Flow only takes a second to run, but I want to make sure and give it enough time to complete before continuing on with more script. I played around with a 'for' command and kept incrementing the counter, but could never get it to churn long enough. Any other ideas

I am using the TEXT_OnFocus(id, row) function, and I only need it to execute for certain fields.  I have my if (id=='text12' || id=='text13'... statement, and there are 2 fields that are not working correctly.  The fields are in the detail line section of PO20, so there is the FC column where you can A(dd), C(hange) etc.  This is one of the fields that doesn't work.  If I open the line section in DS, I cannot focus on that field.  It is in a protected state.  I looked at the source and found the...
