Make a field to true by default

[kpj]

I created an Active field with True/False type. I have given the default Value as true in Dictionary as well. But on the form, I do not see the Active as true i.e., Active check-box is not true.

I really appreciate for your valuable answers

Thanks,

KP

KP,

Either check the Business Rule or Client Script for a start...search the field for that table...there could be an inherit script somewhere,,,please let me know if this helps...Cheers, Dor

If you are setting the default value to a boolean true (no quotes around it) then it should be working. I just verified it in my dev instance. If you just created the field then it won't set it for pre-existing records, only records created after the default was defined.

Jack,

Here are some screenshots on Geneva with this working:

This is a new table I created:

Just setting the default value to true works.   Do you have any Business Rules or UI Policies overriding the default value?

Thank you All for quick response. I do not have any Business Rules or Client Script running on this form.

Robert - Yes, I have pre-existing records and these records are also need to be set True.

Just to be Specific on my problem: I have pre-existing records on a Table and I want all those records to be set as true
