Programming Error

I have a simple application in which I have a few text elements and one Date Element. It shows error for simple code like

Display = Diag1 + " " + Diag2

error message "+" operation not defined for operand.

The same I can do in Mass Update and test for error and no error messages there.  The files functions fine. It even compiles without error.  Only problem is that when I test the program window, it will show error for all above string operations.   ???

All text Boxes and Database was translated from Q&A4. It has very little programming and may be about fifteen LEs.

Other significant thing I can remember is that I had renamed the database and Layout Form using Property Editor. I know the same could have been done using Manage a Database section.  There are about three reports translated from Q&A. I use this application for external lookups only.

What are the field types (not layout element types) of Display, Diag1 and Diag2? Are they Text? Dates? Numbers?

That error message usually means that you are trying ot perform an operation that is not valid for the data type, for example, dividing dates. Could I see this application? If so, send it to support@lantica.com marked to my attention.

Erika,

I found the problem. One of the Elements name and Layout Name is the same. I changed the element name and it is fine. Sorry for the trouble. I knew the problem arised when I changed the layout's and database name. Thanks.

Q&A tolerated this for what seems like ages. I think it would not be inappropriate if Sesame either gives an alert or stop while such naming incompatibility is detected with appropriate message. Obviously, it is an end-user goof up, but programming can protect the integrity of the program and a lot of headaches for support as well as end-users.
