Dear Aji, All,
Thank you for explaining me the use of Docu::copy. I did have a look at the method copy but apparently not good enough. I was also a bit in a hurry. Thanks for making it clear. While I was reading your reply, two questions come up: 1. Can you tell me which method copies the data from Table SalesLine to CustInvoiceTrans. 2. Do you happen to have such a display method available? Just the basic format. Next when do you consider adding the fields to the table CustInvoiceTrans is justified? regards, Danny Gaethofs --- In [EMAIL PROTECTED], Aji Sarosa <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Danny, > > Not every fields you add to salesLine must also exist > in CustInvoiceTrans, unless it is necessary for some > reasons.
