Running R&R 7 or 10 with VFP8

Post by Joe_(Guest) » Tue Jul 10, 2012 9:54 am

I am launching a legacy R&R report through an upgraded FP2.6 to VFP8 application. The R&R runtime starts up, however, I am getting the following error message from R&R: "Problem With Report: Cannot use index or tag on NULLable key: G2COUNT.IDX" (G2COUNT.IDX is a custom index file of mine, however, I get a similar message on the usage of CDX indexes).

This error is because R&R Xbase can^t handle NULLable key fields in index files (NULL being problematic as an undefinable state). If you have complete control over your tables, change the NULL status in the Table Designer to OFF (i.e. unclick the control).
