Hi Fred, Yes, I have If No Requests Match Show Default Message enabled. But I'm not getting that message.
I ran AL-SQL-API logs for both the Admin user and the regular user. 2 pages for the admin user and 12 for the regular user, mostly from sql calls which I think may be triggered by some filters, but I'm not sure why I think that, because those sql statements start with select a.active link, but no ALs are shown, other than the one that is setting the external field and running the report. The big difference between the two logs is how the server is getting the information it needs. The Admin user does: GetListEntry, for the one record itself GetListEntryWithFields where it's selecting the report record (I think) GetEntryBlob selecting one field from the report GetMultipleEntries, where it's selecting the fields included in the report Then the second action of the AL runs, the Open Dialog part The regular user does none of these. The log shows EXP, on the form we're pulling the record from, where it does 10 pages of select statements as described above, for active links and menus. EXP again on the form we're pulling the record from, but apparently issues no select statements GetListEntry, for the one record itself GetListSchema, saying that the schema changed since December 1969 Then the second action of the AL runs, but of course no open window action is performed - there's nothing to open because the SQL statements are never issued. It would be interesting to know why the regular user logs different things than the Admin user.
