Re: default value from Lookup (was Grant, please help me)

texte = >>Suppose I do a lookup and one of the first records in the database matches>>the lookup parameters. Does the lookup stop there, or does it continue down>>thru the whole database until it reaches the end?>>Lookup stops at the first match -- another reason it is faster.That's what I was hoping ... plus, I figured you would code it this way,since the lookup only has to match one record anyways ... so why bother tolook any further once it's found a match? ... :)Good. I split the problem database and quadrupled the size of both 'halves'... and while one of those 'halves' works fine, the other still fails.Therefore, it seems very much to be a bad record somewhere in the db. Iwill try to run it down by using sequential lookups to pinpoint the problemrecord(s).Thanks, Grant, for the help, I'll let you know what I find. I've beenstymied by this problem because this is exactly the same db I've been usingfor months without a single problem ... so that's one reason I thought itwas okay, but apparently it's not anymore ... :)Sincerely, Ken GromeWebDNA Solutionshttp://www.hui.net/dna/webdna.html
