On a forms editline I used to have a POPUP event which I cleared and replaced with INDEX LOOKUP. But it doesn't work right.

Popup still shows up??

This would imply it was not correctly removed. Was/Is one of them a quickevent and the other a script? Are they both on the same event?

Quickevents.

Well, how do you remove correctly? I use clear button and clearing the index lookup still leaves the popup active.

The other possibility is that the window did not compile correctly. Examine the SYSREPOSWINEXE struture to see if it contains an indexlookup or a popup call. Failing all else mail us the compiled window and we'll tell you.

More on this silly thing:

If I save_as my E_PROJECT to E_PROJECT_BAK the new form works properly and the options popup is gone.

I deleted E_PROJECT records in form executables and in forms,

opened E_PROJECT_BAK and did save_as E_PROJECT.

Guess what, the BUG is back in E_PROJECT.

I am tearing my hair off with this.

Thank you guys.

I finally fixed it by going to events & events executables and deleted in options E_PROJECT.PNUMB.

Sometimes orphaned events still get found at compilation time - so the source goes but the compiled doesn't. Just sometimes this seems to result in inclusion at compilation time again. Sorry not to have been more immediate help.

Still waking up here, but isn't this a problem only with scripted events? I thought this was a QuickEvent and thus wouldn't be subject to the orphaned event situation. That's why I would have suspected the form didn't compile correctly.

FWIW, one way that we deal with this type of problem is to recreate the event and do something simple (like display a message box), compile and test, and then remove the event again. This usually clears any residual event calls.

From examination of the Compiled Window provided by Kauko it was apparent that scripts were being used as well as Quick Events. Hence our comment :-)
