jdecgrt: Unable to Retrieve Business View Information for custom application

Hello, list. This may prove to be complicated; I thank you in advance for your input.

I performed the Xe to ERP 8 upgrade steps in Fall 2004. My developers are finally free to test, so I ran (successfully) R98700 (SpecMerge Driver) to bring over a custom application and associated objects that have been modified and appended since that time. I built and installed an update package with the five objects:

F550046H
F550046D
P5542RTM
V550046H
V550046D


But! When double-clicking the application from the menu:

"jdecgrt: Unable to retrieve business view information - Application P5542RTM"

Clicking OK takes me back to the menu.

What's the next step to figure out *this* dog?

Try deleting the global tables on the client machine. They can be found in the spec folder. There are six tables.

dddict.*
ddtext.*
glbltbl.*

Hope this helps.

ergh, already tried that and got the same result. Any other ideas?

Do your custom tables have a new data dictionary item that was created in XE? Did it convert over? Have you tried checking out (or advanced get) the list of objects in your package?

Try bringing up each of the two business view in Business View Design Aid (via OMW). VDT should compalin about the missing DD item...

Cheers,

Thank you for writing, Patty and Chris. It was indeed a Data Dictionary item or two that had not been replicated from B7333 to B7334.

All fixed!
