Formdes.exe generating errors (OpenInsight 32-Bit)

Normally I just use "Save as" to create new forms. Since I have been having problems with Combo boxes, I have wanted to create a form using "new form".

So I select "No Table" in the "Data source" combo box. I also use a "style sheet" "defoitemplate". Click "OK" to create the form and I get the error message "FORMDES.EXE generating errors".

Can anyone create a table using a style sheet "defoitemplate"? I was able to use it before my upgrade to 4.1.3

Oystein,

Dang!!!!! that is also the answer to my COMBOBOX problem!!! Geeeeesssss… That will solve my problem! Thanks!!!

Because, man, I really thought I was going crazy or something. Those stupid settings were just changing themselves automatically. Now that I removed that "style sheet", everything is normal.

Richard,

My question is: Why haven't Revelation removed the "style sheet" feature altogether, when it causes so many problems?
