Hi,
Which Ninox App you are using? The Ninox App for Mac, iPad, iPhone or Android.
If you are not working on a phone you should see that screen if click or tip on a record to open the input form.
Kind regards, Jörg

I’m using the iPad and the browser version on my laptop. As an experienced VB, JavaScript, Access, SQL programmer what I really need is a guide to Ninox code that covers objects, properties and methods. I need to take rows from a subtable in one record and copy them into another.

Here is the link to the Language Reference...

I don't work for Ninox, but I can say from my own experience and inquiries the Ninox programming language is not object-oriented. You can get and set the values of fields using code and by using the keyword "this" to get a handle to the current record.

I tried to research what is and what isn't OOP and wound up feeling a gray as ever. I do know that you can't declare objects like you can in JavaScript using the Ninox language. If you want to modify information in the database, you have attach code to a Button object or a Trigger (there is also a console you can run commands in). I know how to copy records from one table to another using code, but what you have is a subtable which is a reference to another table. Do you want to create duplicate records in the referenced table? I don't mind working through this if you have the patience.
You can also request a screen sharing session with Support or ask for an invite to the Webinar on Tuesdays.

Thanks Sean
ive found what I need buried in the Ninox us training video for ‘for...end’. Fairly pedestrian for an experienced developer but it’s all there. Thanks for your reply.
