Hi Ed,
I am using Class-based Menus
1) I am not able to reproduce again this but just for reference. When the app starts the Edit and Windows menu pad is enabled but if I press Alt to open any the pad they are disabled.
2) I am not able to reproduce again this but just for reference. Why is the Format pad there after the Help pad. It seems to want to stay back from the development environment.
3) The following line is still missing from a new newapp in aDataEnv.PRG
*-- SECURITY
DEFINE CLASS SECURITYEnvironment AS iDataEnvironment
cDefaultDatabaseName = "SECURITY"
*** this line is required for security to function
cDefaultViewDatabaseName = "SECURITY"
cDefaultLocalLocation = SYS(5) + SYS(2003) + "SECURITY"
cDefaultRemoteLocation = SYS(5) + SYS(2003) + "SECURITYREMOTE"
ENDDEFINE
4) A suggestion: When the toolbar is in New or Edited record mode disable the navigation buttons completely, in fact only Save, Revert and Exit buttons to be allowed. So that the user knows what are his expected behaviours.
5) A suggestion (again 8-)): When only one record is in the table then navigation is essentially useless thus disable the navigation bar when only one record is present. Trust me, I know of users (not everybody is lucky you see) who will phone me saying that he has entered one record and he is trying to navigate and the buttons are, but the form is not responding to his navigation.
