FIX: Report Wizard Preview Error If View Given as Child Table
This article was previously published under Q134437
If you specify a view as the child table in the One-to-Many Report Wizard,
and then click the Preview button on the final step of the wizard, this
error occurs:
Error 1683 in process (0); Index tag is not found
By design, a view cannot be used as the child table in a one-to-many
relationship. This is because the child table must have an index tag on the
parent table key field in order to create the relationship. Because a view
cannot be indexed, the relationship cannot be created.
The One-to-Many Report Wizard does not check to see if the child table is a
view or an actual table. When the preview button is clicked, the error
occurs.
Be sure to specify an actual table for the child table prior to invoking
the wizard.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products
listed at the beginning of this article. This problem has been fixed in
Visual FoxPro 5.0 for Windows.
Steps to Reproduce Behavior
- Open the Tastrade.dbc database in the VFP\Samples\Mainsamp\Data
directory.
- On the File menu, click New Report, and then click the Wizard button.
- Choose the One-to-Many Report Wizard.
- Specify Products as the parent table, and include all fields.
- Specify Order History Line Items as the child table, and include all
fields.
- Click Finish.
- Click the Preview button. The error should occur.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Visual FoxPro 3.0 Standard Edition
- Microsoft Visual FoxPro 3.0b Standard Edition
