How to get filtering to work in a reference field that is set to popup and has columns from linked tables.

Re: Minimum value 'number'
I guess Ninox treats 0 as a not. So you have to change the code to: if 'Number 1 = null then 'Number 1' := 'Number 4' end Then you can enter in a 0 in 'Number 1' and Ninox won't change it.

Re: Multiple forms for a table?
Do you have a record in the Contacts table? The only way I could get a blank form is when there is no record in the DB. In addition, Columns have no affect on Forms.
