DataBase - Dexterity - Problem opening Serial number entry window

Hi,
I am creating a window that is similar to the 'Item Transaction Entry
window' .
In the 'Item Transaction Entry' window of GP, if the Document Type is set to
'Adjustment',  it opens the 'Item Serial Number Entry Widnow' when a
serialized item is entered in the scrolling window.
Similarly i want to open the Item Serial Number Entry window, if the user
enters a serialized item in the scrolling window i create.
So, i added change script in  the scrolling window I created to open 'Item
serial number entry window'  if the item entered in the line is serialized
item.
I used the following  script if the item entered is serialized item:

open window IV_Transaction_Serial_Numbers of form IV_Transaction_Entry.

But, this script fails to open that window as the IV_Transaction_Entry form
isnt opened.  I just want to see the IV_Transaction_Serial_Numbers window of
form IV_Transaction_Entry.
Is there a way i could open this window? or do i need to create my own window?
It would be easier for me if i could use the  IV_Transaction_Serial_Numbers
window than creating one similar to that.


Thanks,
swetha

Swetha,

Since the IV_Transaction_Serial_Number is a window within the
IV_Transaction_Entry form, I am afraid you will have to create your own
window. However, what I suggest to you is duplicate the IV_Transaction_Entry
form, with a new name of IV_Transaction_Serial_Number, then remove the other
windows from your duplicated form (IV_Transaction_Enty,
IV_Transaction_Accounts, IV_Transaction_Lot_Numbers, and
IV_Transaction_Date). You will also need to change the Auto-open property of
the window back to True.

Best regards,
