I recently noticed that no message is been shown when trying to delete a parent record on which some other records depend.

The referential integrity is restricted at all levels and after a debugging session, I noticed that the MSGSVC utility is receiving the required string “This record is linked to others. It cannot be deleted”, but no message is shown by the MSGSC utility. The business object seems to handling everything Ok and reverting accordingly.

I added a button to my form to call the function at the click by issuing MSGSVC(‘Message not in msgsvctable’) but again nothing happened.

I also reinstalled the complete MM libraries thinking of a possible corruption caused by my strings translator but I’m getting the same behavior.

I would appreciate that other MM users would try to use the MSGSVC utility to display a plain one string message msgsvc(‘Message’) and give me her/his feedback about it. I updated all of my projects to mm6.1 as it came out, and I´m sure the previous version was handling the message display correctly.

BTW, I noticed that the MSGSVC object is just issuing RETURN after testing
“IF ccAutoInsert”

whose value is .F. by definition:

#DEFINE ccAutoInsert .F.

then all messages whose key is not into the msgsvc table are not showing (at least for me).

Thanks in advance for any hints.
