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

Hi Jack,

The records already present before adding default value of active to true will not reflect their active value as true.

Create new record to this table . All new records will be defaulted to active true.

Thanks,

Hi Mihir,

I have 1000's of pre-existing records. Is it possible to make them true as well.

Thanks,

KP

Yes Jack,

You need to run a back ground script and set all record active true.

Thanks,

You could right click on any column header of a list view of the table and "Update All". If you only check that box, that will be the only change to all of the records.

Hi Jack,

You can write a   client script : SNOW - Active True

function onLoad() {

    //Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below

        g_form.setValue('Active','true');

}

Mark if it is helpful or correct, feedback is appreciated

Thanks
