I'm having a problem with private datasessions in VFP 5.
I use private datasessions in two main forms in my app. One lists executives the other lists firms. I want to be able to click a button on the "executives" form to run the "firms" form and see detailed info about that executive's firm.
The forms are run with the "do form linked" command (do form execs name frmexecs linked). I have a button on the "executives" form that stores the firm name to a field and requeries a view on the "firms" form. If the "firms" form isn't running it first runs it then requeries the view. The problem is that if the "firms" form needs to be run it crashes saying that the view I want to requery isn't open.
I'm sure it's open, but calling this newly run form from another form
doesn't seem to allow enough time to switch to the private datasession of the "firms" form.
I'm wondering if anyone has had this problem. I'm not sure if it's the "linked" part of the do form command. (I didn't have this problem when I referenced the form with "_screen.forms(x)") or if there's something I'm missing with the private datasessions.
Thanks.
