Indexes dissapearing ind paradox 4.5 for dos

Post by Paul Lavell » Fri, 13 Aug 1999 04:00:00



In a script, the following command is executing:
MOVETO [GL\VIS->VN] ORDERTABLE SELECT "VN"
For some reason, the program cannot locate the index and a "Not a possible
menu choice" error is generated. When I break out of the script immediately
after the error is generated, I am able to locate the table and sort on the
field  using ALT-S. Any suggestions?

I use the same logic in many places in my apps.. there is one spot, in a
particular table used in *many* apps, where it fails the same way.. I can't
force it to fail, and it often *doesn't* fail.. what it does when it fails is
*not* move to the chosen field.. the work-around I found is to have that line
of code twice.. evidently it seems to work at least one of the two times
<smile>.. weird, but true..

1. Paradox dos 4.5; Index problem

I'm using Paradox for DOS 4.5 and running on Netware 4.1.
Sometimes during data-entry operation (Coedit mode) in a multi-user
environment, this message "Table index is based on different index order"
appear in one particular station.

When we try it on another system, it works fine. Does anyone encounter
this problem before or know what is the problem, please give some advice.

Thank you in advance.
