Sheet OnActivate trigger: problem with macro + select in field

[#1]

I'm experiencing a problem with the OnActivate trigger on a sheet.

What I want to do is:

1. "select in field" action

2. run a macro which clears some fields (one of them being "StartDate_Year")

3. run another macro (clears some other fields)

4. "select in field" action --> sets a value in field "StartDate_Year"

But, when I switch to the sheet, action #4 is not executed

However, when I replace actions #2 and #3 by a sequence of "Clear field" actions, everything works just fine, so the problem is not in action #4.

The reason I want to use a macro, is so I can reuse this over multiple sheets.

Content of the macro is very simple:

Function ClearFields_StartDate

    ActiveDocument.Fields("StartDate_YearMonth").Clear

    ActiveDocument.Fields("StartDate_Dt").Clear

    ActiveDocument.Fields("StartDate_Day").Clear

    ActiveDocument.Fields("StartDate_Month").Clear

    ActiveDocument.Fields("StartDate_MonthShort_NL").Clear

    ActiveDocument.Fields("StartDate_MonthShort_FR").Clear

    ActiveDocument.Fields("StartDate_MonthName_NL").Clear

    ActiveDocument.Fields("StartDate_MonthName_FR").Clear

    ActiveDocument.Fields("StartDate_YearMonth_NL").Clear

    ActiveDocument.Fields("StartDate_YearMonth_FR").Clear

    ActiveDocument.Fields("StartDate_Year").Clear

End Function

(second macro is identical - with end dates)

If I comment out the last line (clearing the "StartDate_Year" field), everything also works like a charm.

So I'm having the idea that Qlikview is not executing the trigger actions in the correct order?

Has someone else experienced this problem?

I am running QV10 SR1.

thanks,

Nico

What happens if you move the line toward the top?
