Sorry, it's not my decision.

You can also avoid these kinds of problems by using database objects. Every database object creates its own unique workarea and handles it internally. Thus you never have to deal with workareas.

you are newbie ? and since when are you a newbie? I really tried to understand and until you created the test sample I kept understanding that what I understood was not the problem you said you had because I really didn't think I could make a beginner mistake, I didn't believe it possible and now th...

Ok, I made a newbie mistake...

It works!

Many many thanks!

Enrico, I tested your sample
Please use clause NEW when you Open dbf

Code: Select all  Expand view

    USE CUSTOMER NEW ALIAS ( CGETNEWALIAS() ) SHARED
 

Please look my sample

( Now I will test your example. )

... DIALOG oDlg;             ON INIT oBrw:AdjClient();             VALID ( DBCLOSEAREA( oBrw:cAlias ), .T. );             NOMODAL    RETURN NIL EMG

Please, open the same table (with different alias) in both browses. Then put, in both dialogs, a button in the buttonbar with this action

ACTION MSGINFO( FIELD -> first )

From which workarea (1 or 2) it will read the field value?

Dear Enrico
I do not think I fully understand the problem that it raises. Can you better explain to me what you need
Here are two non-modal dialogs with xbrowse

Scenario: two nomodal dialogs (or windows) each with its own browse. The code behind them are the same and relies on the current workarea (this is not my choice). How can I get this working without a way to automatically switch the workarea when a dialog gains the focus?
