Re: [dabo-users] Warning Python noob needs help

Thanks Ed, but it doesn't seem to work and stops the info dialog from being

displayed at all. It also doesn't reset the form to allow for the next entry

to be made.

>After a new record is saved, the value of the auto-generated PK should be

available in your bizobj via self.getPK(). So your code would read:

Does the self.getPK() actually go in the bizobj file??

The code snippet below is in the frmDC2010Add-code.py file that was created

when I made the frmDC2010Add.cdxml in the CD.

Is this the right place for it??

def afterSave(self):

> newPK = self.getPK()

> dabo.ui.info("Record successfully saved. Your new number is DC10-

> %s" % newPK, title="Success")

> self.new()

> self.BuilderName.setFocus()

I tried several things to get the info dialog to fire, which it wouldn't as

long as the newPK = self.getPK() line existed or %s" % newPK existed in the

dabo.ui.info line. I'm stumped.

> stringID = str(integerID)

> print stringID.zfill(3)

Now I just need to figure out how to use it once I get the the other part

working.

It's a single DB per year and history shows I should be ok, and it makes my

stomach less uneasy using Dabo than keeping this thing in an MS Access DB as

it currently exists. ;^)

Any clues that might point me in the right direction are greatly

appreciated.

Thanks Again
