Scoped Applications & Autonumber

[Steve Gibson]

Hello,

We are just starting to develop with Scoped Applications however have hit what seems to be a basic issue....

When creating a new application we want to also create a new table (not extended of any other table), this is easy enough. We also want to auto number with a new prefix, after selecting the option on the table and entering our prefix the table is updated ok, However when creating a new record on the table there is no number automatically generated as expected.

Also, when checking Number Maintenance the new prefix is there but the table is not linked, when selecting the table and updating the table is being removed.

Has anyone had any experience with auto-numbering within Scoped Applications? I have searched the wiki and community to no avail at the moment.

My only option current is to go back to update set development which we are trying to move away from.

Thanks,

I believe your going to have to recreate the table. I have a similar problem and   the table can't be linked is because the table name/label was over the max length allowed.
