Hi

I so far successfully Integrated Dayback 9.52 into my solution: I get no error messages and events in calendar view are linked to the events in my event table. SampleContacts is a copy of my contact table and all fields are mapped correctly, I think.

However, when trying to add or search a contact via the popover in calendar view, no contacts are found, but I don't get an error message.

I checked and re-checked everything but cannot find a solution.

Thanks for any hints

Hi Juergen. Make sure you've copy/pasted the DBK_WebViewerSource and DBK_WebViewerData fields (with the field references therein correctly mapped) from the SampleContacts and SampleProjects tables in the stock DayBack file into the corresponding tables in your own file. More guidance here:

If you make any changes there, rerun the "Upon Opening" script.

Hi, Jeff

Yes, that's it... sometimes...

However, I cannot replace the event's existing contact with another one, true? I do have to delete the event and schedule a new one for the other contact for the same time slot?

Thanks again

You can replace the chosen contact with another one. Just click on the event to open the popover, click on the selected name to get the search tool, enter your criteria and choose another name from the list.

It's true that the data changes in the events and contacts table but the (contact) name in the calendar popover still remains the old one...

Got your file, thanks. You're using a local text field ("NameFull") as your Contact Name. That's fine, but the problem in your case is that you have the "Do not replace existing value..." check box turned on for that field's auto-enter calculation. Uncheck that and I think you'll see the behavior you're looking for. Alternatively, you could map the name field from the related Contacts table. HTH -Jeff
