Offline data not working !

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by rlmckean 171

Hi

Just starting on an offline app. The code I use is as follows located on the onstart property of the form

If(Connection.Connected,ClearCollect(Quotes,Filter(Quoteclient,Quoteno>300)),LoadData(Quotes,"Localquotes",true));SaveData(Quotes,"Localquotes")

I ran the app online then changed to airplane mode. 

A red bar on the top said 'an unknown error has occured'  and then when I reopened the app there was no data !

Fairly sure the code is as per tweet example but maybe I have missed something

 

Cheers

 

Richard

    Its always the simplest things that one does not do ! - I had not <published>  the updated offline code!

    It would appear to work - still getting an error message but I think this will relate to other matters !!

     

    Cheers

    Hi

     

    Tutorial never mentioned the "Pre-Requisite" for offline apps.

    When you OPEN the apps for the first time, and in OFFLINE mode, nothing will be SAVED because nothing entered.

     

    For offline mode, I would recommend that when it is first loaded, it must be ONLINE so that the FIRST recorded data is SAVED.

    So, when on subsequent application, and during OFFLINE, the previously saved data will then be LOADED.

     

    I hope this helps.

     

    TQ
