Hello, first, my apologize because my english not so good. I decided to migrate to Lianja starting from scratch. I need your help. In a section grid I have a memo field. I can not edit it with any command, double click, etc. I followed the tutorials by checking the attributes section: "double click to edit", "split grid" and "show split grid", but just nothing happens !. I donīt know what I'm doing wrong.
I appreciate your support as soon as possible
JAOS:)
Drag the memo field from the columns panel onto the page and an editable webview will be created under your grid. As you navigate records in the grid the webview contents will be refreshed. You may have to relate the grid to the webview section using the relationship builder.
Click on the webview to edit the memo.
Thank you very much, Barry.
It worked perfectly!
Happy New Year. ;)

But that raises the obvious question: Why does a memo field in a grid appear as a Link? (implying that something will happen when you click on it)
When you shift+Click+drag a table onto a page a grid section is created.
Double click on the section header and you will see some attributes for a "Split Screen" grid.

OK, I think I understand but that suggests an inconsistency
First, if I understand you correctly, what you're telling me is that the link just triggers local display into the section linked to the memo. And that strongly implies that the memo data won't display UNTIL the memo link is clicked.
But, as you may have seen from one of my other recent posts about "peculiar cursor movement in grid", that is not the behaviour I'm experiencing. If I have data in a memo field and a webview section available to display it, the memo data automatically displays as the record pointer moves to the relevant record in the grid - with no need to click on the memo link. Which, frankly, is also exactly what I'd want and expect to see!
