Hi Gerry, You're passing in the dgIndex of the row, not the line number. The dgIndex is assigned when data is loaded into the datagrid and never changes which I think explains your problem.
You can either use deleteIndexes or pass in the dgHilitedLine of the datagrid and continue to to use deleteLine. Hope that helps, Pete Pete lcSQL Software <http://www.lcsql.com> On Wed, Jan 8, 2014 at 3:37 PM, Gerry Orkin <gerry.or...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi all > > I have a delete button in the row template group of a data grid form. > > When the user touches there delete button I do this: > > deleteRecord the dgIndex of me > > ...and I handle that command in the card script with: > > on deleteRecord whichRow > dispatch "deleteline" to group "datagrid" with whichRow > end deleteRecord > > That deletes the specified row, but something isn't working right.
