Select newest added item in Gallery (sql connector)

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Pieter_NL 21

Whenever I add an item via a form, my gallery will jump to the record I had selected before I saved my new form.

 

I want it to jump to the newest added item. But somehow I can't  get it to work with SQL.

 

I found a solution on this forum, which said to use this in the Default property of the Gallery: 

First(SortByColumns(QuotesDataSource, "ID",Descending))

But this doesn't work with a sql datasource. It says that "First" is not supported.

 

Is there any other way to do this with a sql datasource?

    Have you tried Sort with first;

    SortByColumns(QuotesDataSource, "ID",Descending)

    Or

    Sort(QuotesDataSource, ID,Descending)

     

     

    You can also use Set( VarLastData, FormName.LastSubmit) on the Onsuccess of the form.

    Then in the Default of the Gallery put;

    VarLastData

    I tried both, both don't work 😞 

     

    Your last solution should work, I dont understand. Maybe the galley default isn't triggered after adding a record?

    Did you try the lastSubmit.

     

    Does the form Datasource same as the Gallery Datasourc

     

    Also is the ID the auto Autonumber column in the SQL

    Yes I tried the LastSubmit.

     

    The datasources are the same and the ID is an autoincrement primary key in SQL.

     

    When I restart the whole application, it works the first time I enter the form. But when I add a record, it won't trigger the default property. Is this correct?
