QUESTION:
I migrated my simplest worspace and I am not capable of compiling. I am migrating from 10.1 to 12. I keep getting "function not found selected_Items" error.
Can someone point me to what is causing that?
ANSWER:
This was an 11.0 change. Selected_items was a set object used in selection lists and was meant to be private. In 11.0, the internal implementation for handling selected items in a dbList changed and that set object no longer exists. I see that we talk about this object in the dbList help and that is an error (actually that's an error that goes back many versions - we should not be talking about private objects. That is very old doc that got pasted incorrectly into our class help).
The public interface for working with selected items in a dbList are:
Get/Set Select_Count
Get First_Selected_Item
Get Next_Selected_Item
Set Select_State
and these interfaces have not changed.
The best way to correct the error you are getting is to change your code to use these public messages.
