Re: Unique row in table field

No. Even the table field qualification cannot be written such that it
displays only unique records.

You could achieve this, by customizing your form in such a way that while
inserting or updating that form, if the record is found to be duplicate, set
a flag that recognizes it as a duplicate. So only the first record has this
flag cleared..

The other way would be to step slightly outside of the ARS, and create a
underlying database view that displays unique information, and build a table
field pointing to that view..

While the first method has its advantage of being pure ARS, it would be
slightly more expensive in the sense that there will be a query every time
there is a insert or update operation to the table. The second being a query
only at the time the table needs to be displayed will be a relatively
inexpensive method..

Hope this helps..

Hi Anuj,

Have you considered using the tree view of a table field? That allows
you to group like rows together. It supports much of the functionality
found in ordinary list based table fields.
