In sample codes under OnValidate page, please reference usage of ShowControlError


ShowControlError sample code uses onValidate method which is the the best place for it.

But, in onValidate samples, the logic seems incomplete. the code just prevents the focus to go on, with no user notification ..

I know that Data Access is working on integrating AI into the Studio, but I've been evaluating the AI Chat in help - docs.dataflex.dev/chat/. A couple of notes.

1) Class Hierarchy: One think I have noticed is that the AI does not always search back up the class hierarchy for a certain object class when looking for solutions to a prompt.

As a simple example, I asked the AI to help with formatting a non-DD related cWebForm, such as ######.##. The AI did not find the related properties (peDataType, piPrecision, and psMask). These properties are in cWebBaseDEO.

I then instructed the AI to look up through the class hierarchy, and it found and presented the proper solution. I ran a separate chat in another window and the AI found it the first time. So ones needs to be persistent.

2) Learning scope: I asked about this anomaly and the AI stated that any corrections made by the user would be 'learned' in the current conversation, but not in others and obviously not globally.

My understanding is Data Access is using a 3rd Party AI resource for the chat, so unsure if there will be the ability to augment the learned excerpts in help. My understanding is that this will be addressed in the Studio AI Chat as we will be able to add own code bases.

3) Help AI access to example source code: Evidently, the help does not have access to the various Dataflex example code sets, such as WebOrder, WebOrderMobile, Flextron, Plato, etc. I think this might be helpful, although I assuming the source code would need to be annotated. ]]> Rich Miller https://support.dataaccess.com/Forums/showthread.php?73425-Dataflex-OnLine-Help-AI-Chat-Notes https://support.dataaccess.com/Forums/showthread.php?73404-Help-doc-GridRefresh-and-RefreshListFromDD-should-cross-reference-each-other&goto=newpost Tue, 21 Jul 2026 15:14:49 GMT The help for both of these pages just says what you should NOT do, but it does not help you to know what should be done instead for the other case. ... The help for both of these pages just says what you should NOT do, but it does not help you to know what should be done instead for the other case.

You are trying to find in the help what is the method to refresh a grid.. you may find one of them first, but not the desired one for you case.

Please, cross reference them:
