Hi All,

In our development area we are facing an issue where the field validation routines are getting executed twice Continuously the movement we input the value in the field that is set as HOT FIELD and TAB button is pressed. [Note: i am aware that the field validation routine gets executed again when the record is committed but here its not the case]

Its only happening in BROWSER

Please help me out.........!!!!!


Thanks

Hi Manjunath,

Do you mean routines are getting triggered thrice ? field validation routines will be triggered twice only.. one for hot field and other while committing. I think thats how it works.

Have I understood the problem correctly ?

Hi,

Thanx for your reply....

Ya its executing getting thrice............!!!!

twice during inputting & once during commit...........!!!!

Generally it should execute only once during the Input. & once during Commit.


Thanx.....

What is the T24 version? can you trace the path from the field validation routine using j -g from debug mode?

Any change when you disable hot fields in BROWSER.PREFERENCES ?

Hi Jpb,

Thanks for replying....


Actually we not using "BROWSER.PREFERENCES" for this.

and can you explain about "BROWSER.PREFERENCES" ???? which purpose we are using it?????

Thanks,

I think the useage of BROWSER.PREFERENCES is self explanating in the helptext :

This file defines a user's preferences for the appearance and behaviour of the Browser product screens. The application is keyed on the user's Id.

This allows the user to define various parameters, such as, which 'skin' the user would like to run the Browser with thus determine the 'look and feel' of the Browser windows, as well as a number of optional attributes defining whether they wish to see Hot Fields and Auto Launch Enquiries in their Browser.

Hi Jpb,

Thank you so much for your information regarding "BROWSER.PREFERENCES".

As i used for Browser.Preference "Print Location" - [Local, Server] for Printing the Deal-Slip as it before set "SERVER", i changed it as "Local" so its printing locally, and popup while commit the particular transaction where i attached the Deal-Slip in version.

But for this Subjected topic, Browser.Preference will not come into picture. becz its for particular user rite.
[Its not only for me, but every one also who is working under the area they are facing same problem]

So pls. if you/anybody found any Technical Solution to this.... Kindly Share it.

Thanks

I completely understand, but my questions was just intended to know if there is a change in behaviour when you disable Hot... using BROWSER.PREFERENCES or if the routine is stll triggered (or only once...)

Hi Jpb,

NO..!.I am not Disable HOT.FIELDS in "BROWSER.PREFERENCES".


BUT Still its triggering twice @ the time of pressing the Tab after the enter the data in particular text box [Browser.]

Thanks

Hi,

In your validation routine, can you please include the below lines which will help us to trace the routine flow.

BP.ID = 'TRACE-':ID.NEW:SYSTEM(12)
FN.BP = 'LOCAL.BP'
F.BP = ''
CALL OPF(FN.BP,F.BP)
STORE.TXT<-1> = SYSTEM(1029)
CALL LOG.WRITE(FN.BP,BP.ID,STORE.TXT,'')
END

if u r in R8
Insert I_EB.TRANS.COMMON and try to check cTxn_CommitRequests variable value, based on this variable u can skip generating twice

Hi, You can check variable MESSAGE. It should be 'VAL'.
Regarding on this value you can skip this routine.

Hi
you're an optimist :))) expecting somebody to wait for 6 years for an answer :)))
