nuBuilder Forum

Hi, i'm new to NuBuilder & would like some advice.

Following is the simple structure of the tables involve.

the relationship is 1 to many, as there can be many job descriptions involve in 1 project.

The link there is, Project called P1 is handle by manager name Alice, & the job involve in the project are SMS module & Email module.

I already created the 2 tables, & a form to view table Project.

what i want the outcome to be:


Basically what i've done is just create the main form & 2 text objects to show project manager name & project ID.
Then I created another object, Subform.
Table: Job
Primary key: job_id
Foreign Key: job_code
SQL: select * from Job where Job_code = '#id#'

Now the both forms were also showing, but only main showing data & subform just blank.

is there any extra steps or object i should create in order to make the subform shows field "descriptions" ?

I'm not sure what you are doing wrong.

because it worked for me...
My guess is the data you have in your tables isn't exactly what you showed here.

BTW If you plan on saving these records, don't display the ID on the Form, I think you need a "pro_code".

i'm not sure myself the problem.

here are the tables & data i have:


here are the setting i put in the subform:

*i suspect i might have key in the wrong value for "Field Name" ?

here is the result i'm getting:


your advice would be deeply appreciated.

uknown_2,

Do you have project_id as the primary key in the Main form?

yes

i even try hard-coding the output with the SQL statement on subform:
select * from job where jo_code = '14f7a6c21f084a'

still not showing anything.

Does jo_code have some trailing spaces?

i've double check, nop.

quick question.
the 2 tables i've created, do i need to set anything there to show that it's linked?

Does
give you the right result running it in phpmyadmin?

yeap, SQL statement is fine.

btw, when i watch the tutorial video, NuBuilder has features that will auto generate the SQL statement when create form & key in the table.
i don't see such features.

unknown_2,

That feature doesn't work now that textarea's have formatted code.

I am not sure why yet.
