I know this is rather vague, but I'm seeing something weird,
A file document opened in QV looks and behaves significantly different than the same document 'opened-in-server' (or opened in the browser with the plug-in).
Specifically, I have a lot of things like
Sum({$<Year={"*"},Quarter{"*"},Month{"*"},QuarterName={$(=Max(QuarterName))}>} Num)
..that look fine when I open them but the server is giving wiggy results,
Is this ringing any bells? I'm at the beginning of this problem, and will add details as I discover them. Thanks.
Hi,
Maybe obvious but do you have any selection field macro or action executed on opening? Are both versions (plugin/client and server) the same?
I need all the obvious help I can get!
Version 9.00.7469.8 SR4 on QV,
On server it says the client build number is 9.0.7469.8
I don't see any on-open macros, but even if there were wouldn't they work the same?
Let's say on server opneing macros/actions don't behave as they do when opening in Desktop. According to the documentation and some experience, On Open macros don't seem to work when the document is accessed by plugin or ajax.
Are you using section access? If yes, may it be affecting the way values are entered in date fields?
Is your server 64bit and your desktop 32bit? Are you using the isNull() function in any expressions (you can search from Settings, Expression Overview).
-Rob
Server - 64 bit
Desktop - 32 bit
IsNull is being used, as follows:
=if(IsNull(BenchmarkPercent),'qmem://<bundled>/BuiltIn/led.png',If((median(Measurement))>BenchmarkPercent,'qmem://<bundled>/BuiltIn/led_r.png','qmem://<bundled>/BuiltIn/led_g.png'))
may be possible that both server and IE plug in have different version .
In that situation you can get different result.
I have some 'On Activate' actions set on the sheet, is this what you mean? They seem to be working, though...hey select values for a couple of fields.
I'm not sure what you mean by section access.
Sorry, but this document was put together by someone much more skilled than me, so my understanding is a little lacking.
Hello,
If the "On Activate" actions are working when you open the document on the server, I don't think that's the problem.
By section access I mean whether the user needs to log into the document (so the information finally displayed depends on the user, there is a Section Access in the script).
Rob's suggestion is good, sometimes using isnull() doesn't work properly with null values, and using instead
is more accurate to check when a value is not present.Len(Field) = 0
In short, I'm trying to touch all possible known issues when opening on server or on desktop may alter document's behavior.
I appreciate eliminating the known issues. They ain't known to me!
I replaced the IsNull with Len(field)=0, but it didn't change the results. There were only 2 instances there anyway...
