Hi,


I am using the DbGetProp function to return the default value of a particular field. I assign an alias name to the table and when I try to reference the field with the alias name, the dbgetprop funtion returns a 'Function arguement value, type, or count is invalid' error. However, if I use the actual table name when referencing the field, it works fine.

Use (Path+"Client") in 0 Alias DataFile
Select DataFile

DefVal=DbGetProp("DataFile.Sex","Field","DefaultValue")
&& Returns error

DefVal=DbGetProp("Client.Sex","Field","DefaultValue")
&& Returns the default value for the sex field.

I need to use the alias name when referencing the field. Any suggestions????


Thanks alot,
