Get screen value

[bmwisme]

SyteLine 5.00.02 newbie.

I would like to grab the screen value of the field I am on with a leave trigger.

strTmp = tt-item.drawing-nbr:screen-value.

Is this syntax incorrect? I get a "Unknown table tt-item". "Field Schema Information" from within Syteline tells me that this is the table.field.

Thanks in advance...

Bill-

It's been a little while since I've worked with Syteline, but I recall they use dynamic temp-tables to seperate database access from the user interface. When you are developing, there should be an empty database that you need to connect to that has all of the Syteline tables with the "tt-" prefix. This database is needed to compile, but shouldn't be connected while actually running the application.
