savepartial not saving
Posted: April 10th, 2019, 9:03 am
Hi folks,
I was trying to implement a data entry program to simulate the real one that would be used later on, and I had a very small data entry program with a couple of fields with noinput, just to go ahead, and a final set of instructions of savepartial and stop(1).
The savepartial was never executed, and I wondered why not. Finally I found that the program needed to have at least one field to be entered by the operator, otherwise the system would not "understand" that something was changed, although I had assigned some values to some fields in the form.
Of course this is a very special situation, where a data entry program does not enter something.
Maybe a note in the savepartial´s help might help.
