Is anything ever going to be done about improving QBF or will there be a replacement option or should we just FORGET ABOUT IT??????

Deirdre,

Are you sure QBF hasn't improved already? I had problems in earlier versions of OI that now seem to be corrected, but I only discovered that by accident.

But there have been several different issues with QBF. What is your particular gripe?

Deirdre,

As Oystein asks: What are your complaints?

Scott,

How about answering this old question I never got an answer to:

I am thinking that a recent release of OI was suppose to

correct the old problem with radio buttons and QBF.

I have a couple of forms with radio buttons that when

I initiate QBF the radio buttons are "nulled" out and

QBF works properly, ignoring the radio buttons.( I have since

determined that these radio buttons were nulled out by me within

the QBFINIT event)

I have other forms with radio buttons that when

I initiate QBF the radio buttons are NOT "nulled" out and

QBF DOES NOT work properly. I have recompiled these forms but

that did not help…

Does anyone have any suggestions????

TIA

                  Steve C.

Hi Scott,

Here's something that would be nice in QBF mode:

When QBF is initialized ( and ONLY at that time), open up all the fields ( including the read-only and disabled ones) for entry of search parameters.

Then, when QBF is run, return all those fields to their initial state.

This would make QBF a real useful tool by enabling a user to search on any edit field/box/table that might not be open in regular input mode. Most other systems I worked with had this feature, and it was a real winner for user-friendlines, saving me weeks of development of custom search screens.

Thanks
