Lotus, Please include the field name generating errors like "can't convert text to a number" before I hang myself trying to find the needle in a haystack

It’s really irritating to have to examine all the fields on a form just because Notes is too stupid to tell us where the error is. It KNOWS where the error is, just tell us! Even a little hint maybe???

jumping to the right line of code where a LS error occured would be nice too …

Well I would hope that as a developer you would have at least a vague idea of where the offending code might be…

But I do hear where you are coming from…

Well, the real pain comes in when you inherit a complex database that you didn’t write… And someone changed something, somewhere… :slight_smile:

Subject: Ooh, yes. Such an obvious one. That’d be good (WAS: Lotus, Please include the field name generating errors like “can’t convert text to a number” before I hang myself trying to find the needle in a haystack…)
