Time Lapsed since Last Record meeting criteria - script Question
I figured out the problem and found a solution: The sort by Added_Time desc; actually calls the record you are creating, so if you really want the last record before that you need to insert the criteria ID<input.ID (as shown in the corrected code below). test = input.Person; LastRecThisPerson = ThisForm [(Person = test && ID < input.ID && Added_Time == today)] sort by Added_Time desc; if (LastRecThisPerson.ID == null) { input.LapsedTimeInHours = 0.00; } if (LastRecThisPerson.ID > 100)

addYear function causing problems since last weeks zoho update
I have a formula that calculates an expiry date with this statement Last_Renewal_Date.addYear(1) It has worked fine for years but last week we got the error that says "Invalid field value" for this formula field.

Date functions used in report criteria lost on re-edit
I have a number of reports set up using date functions such as 'Added_Time' ... Before ... today.subDay(7) to find records that are over a week old. These can be created OK, and work fine. However, when I go to edit the report criteria again, "today.subDay(7)" is always turned into just "subDay". In order to save the correct criteria, I have to retype "today.subDay(7)" into the text box before save. The same happens for other functions e.g. addDay, subMonth, etc. I've got this on a lots of reports,

Archive Subform Data
Hello, I'm trying to archive data from both the parent form and its subform into another section, so that we can look back on old records. As a result, I created a function in which you can click a button on each record to archive it. However, only the fields in the parent form can be archived, NOT in the subform. Any advice? This is what I have so far: void deleteRecord(int ID) { fetch = Part_Information_Input [ID == input.ID]; insert into Archive [ Added_User = zoho.loginuser

Form - Failing to Publish
I just wanted to inform everyone that if you try to publish a form with a font size that is not a whole number (such as 11.5, 12.5, etc.) it will not work. For some reason Zoho developers did not add an alert that tells you why the form failed to publish. Anyways, as long as everything else is okay, it should publish if you use whole number for font sizes (such as 11, 12, etc.).
trim spaces without ending up in a loop?
If a user enters a space at the beginning or end of the field, I need this space removed. .trim() will do this, but.... the script input.value = input.value.trim(); creates a never ending loop. is there any way to get this done? Zoho creator doesn't treat a space like a regular character (eg: Creator ignores spaces), so all the tricks I could think of so far fail, like if (original_value != trimmed_value) {input.form = input.form.trim();} //doesn't work :( or if (value.beginsWith(" ") {} //doesn't

subform row deletion - prompt for confirmation
Is there a way to prompt users to confirm deletion of a subform row/record within a master form? For example, a pop-up message such as "are you sure you want to delete this record?" with options to continue or cancel. I'm assuming such a thing would go in the On Delete Row section for the subform in the master, but can't sort out if it's even supported, or how to code it.
