Project Check 

Use

You use this function to check the consistency of forms and controls in an XML Forms Builder project.

 

Features

By default, the system carries out a project check whenever you save or generate a project. You can also start a project check manually.

The system issues the following types of message in the info area.

·        Errors

Error messages indicate that the project may not work.

Example: A schema reference may point to an element that does not exist.

The project can be generated despite the error messages. However, you should always remove the errors and then regenerate the project.

 

·        Warnings

Warnings indicate that the project should work. However, they contain important information that you should pay attention to.

 

·        Information

 

When you click on a message in the info area, the affected control is highlighted in the form area.

 

Activities

To start a project check manually, choose Extras ® Check Project.

To define that the system should start a check every time you save or generate a project, choose  (Options) and select the Option Check Project on Save on the tab Project.

If you receive a message telling you that labels in your project allow HTML output, read HTML in Label Controls.
