New stores exported from HQ get original store's configuration....
In a headquarters / store operations environment, are configuration settings "centrally maintained data" that get exported from HQ when a new store is created from HQ? In other words, do the new stores get the configuration settings assigned to the first store in store ops manager - file - configuration - accounts/ordering/inventory/options/etc tabs....? Thanks for any insights.

the short answer is no. But it does get some (finding this out as we go). Inventory yes, Ordering dependson what you mean, accounts yes you can send that down, options no.

DougPicNPacThat stuff all comes from the TEMPLATE database you use when you export a new store. If you use Store 1's database as the template, then yes that's where the settings come from. See the HQ Help file for a description of what should be set up in the Template DB. This is basically how you create 'default' values for operating options and security among other things.

HQ users should be able to add ship-to records from the stores.
HQ users should be able to add ship-to records from the stores. As of RMS 1.3.???, HQ users can indeed create ship-to records at the stores. I'm told that RMS doesn't handle this properly. There are problems created when stores are messing around with global customers. I suspect that MS will 'fix' this by eliminating the ability of stores to add Ship-To records.

store an std::string in combobox
Hi there, I am working on some legacy code which is being translated into Chinese. I have a combobox with a load of strings in. The strings are convertd to chinese.

I am using a subform within a form to have users update certain fields in the record where the rest remiain locked.
