Look up field help!

The recommended method of customizing your AppGini-generated application is through hooks. But sometimes you might need to add functionality not accessible through hooks. You can discuss this here.

Look up field help!

Post by wplim » 2013-02-15 20:44

Hi,

I have 3 tables: Part, Job and Defects.

Part table contains: Part Number, Description
Job table contains: Job Number, Part Number (Lookup from Part), and Description (Look up from Part based on Part Number, auto fill)
Defects table: Job Number (Lookup from Job), Part (Lookup from Job based on Job Number selected, auto fill), Description (Lookup from Job based on Job Number selected, auto fill)

I am able to view the part description in Job table, however, not in Defects table as it displays the key linked to part table. How can I modify the source code to display the actual description instead?

Thank you for your help in advance.
