Form Nane Limit... Can't setup form...

Classic Servoy
1

Is there a limit to the length of a form name?

Ive rebuilt a form twice in two different modules (to avoid these issues with modules):

  1. _dev_mod_workflow_action_detail_ShippingManifest and as

  2. workflow_action_detail_shipManifest.

Both from scratch and keep getting a cant setup form error. It draws part of the form in browse (view?) mode but nothing in designer.

I get the error even when the modules aren’t associated with each other.

Me beginning to thinks I have too many valuelists or checkboxes on these forms :P

No there is no limit on the name (the only naming limits is on table/column names enforced on us by databases)
Are you sure the table the form is build upon is accessible?
What is in the detail message when this error occurs?

Completely. This troubled form is just a dup of other forms linked to the same table, all useable.

What is in the detail message when this error occurs?

There is no message see attached!

BTW, jcompanger has a copy of my solution if you want to take a look at the form in question: workflow_action_detail_ShippingManifest.

The problem seems related to (invalid?) html use in valuelists/comboboxes, we made our code more error resistant to handle html parse exceptions In Servoy 2.2.4
Thanks for reporting!
