PocketPC PDB problems filtering a record using a 10 digit numeric field
Previous Topic  Next Topic 

Problem:        The Satellite Forms runtime engine for PocketPC using the PDB database format has a problem filtering record using a 10 digit or wider numeric field as the filter criteria.  When using a large numeric field 10 digits or longer, the filter does not successfully select matching records to display.  This results in incorrect application function.


Solution:        A possible workaround is to reduce the width of the numeric field to be 9 or fewer digits wide (to avoid the problem), or to change the field type to a Character field instead of numeric (which would allow the longer numeric values to be used as filter criteria).


This problem is fully resolved in the updated Satellite Forms runtime engine for PocketPC included in the Satellite Forms Patch 70002.


Status:        RESOLVED        This problem has been resolved with the release of an updated SatForms PocketPC runtime engine with SF Patch 70002.  If you have applied Patch 70002 to your system, or are using Satellite Forms 7.1 or higher, this problem is resolved.
