Quote:1. We need a list box or combo box, etc that can retain MULTIPLE selections. currently the only option I see is a bunch of check boxes, but then the programming gets very extensive just to collect the data if there are 30 or 40 on a form. I would like to see a selector box that can retain all the selections in a semicolon delimited string stored into 1 field. The new String array commands would be able to handle the field nicely.
I've been handling this by using a text box bound to either a text or keyword field. I put a button next to the text box with @UserSelect programming on it that offers the user a list of choices. When they pick something from the list, the programming adds it onto the value already in the text box.
Quote:2. The unlock and Sunlock features are becoming a pain. Since unlock in the admin panel has been mostly ineffective lately, I saved time by putting sunlock in a batch file which helps, but Erika pointed out that it is "very bad" to try to unlock a database that is not really locked. Some additional confirmations are needed. When using the Sunlock tool, it would be nice to see if it was successful or not.
No. I've said that it's very bad to unlock an application that
is really locked. Meaning that it is actually currently loaded by a server.
Quote:3. Multi line text boxes need a scroll bar.
We'd like this also.
Quote:4. While I left my computer at home remotely connected to the office server for several hours (unattended), I lost the connection, but was not aware of it until I tried to SAVE MY PROGRAMMING. All was lost and the server did not acknowledge that I was disconnected so I could not reconnect until I restarted the server. (I think we discussed this earlier, but we still need some sort of solution) Perhaps an autosave timer, or a ping feature would help. At the very least, we need a notice showing the user that the client was disconnected from the server.
We are looking into ways to handle this. Most of the options have downsides, so we're evaluating carefully before implementing any particular method.
Quote:5. I believe Mark mentioned a built in timer for sesame. I hope its still on the radar. I could see lots of benefits for this. Especially when using the FileExists command.
It's on the radar.
