Custom Tables and Data Forms cover a very WIDE spectrum of SalesLogix features and issues. It would be very helpful if you could provide us with a lot more information, like what version of SalesLogix you are using, how you created the data form, and how you are calling your data form. The more information you can provide for us, the better we can answer your questions - and don't assume we some of the things you did - plenty of people come into this forum having missed what a lot of people consider fairly basic things.

If have not takes a formal developer's course in SalesLogix I strongly suggest you do so. SalesLogxi is NOT something that is easy to learn. It has a very steep learning curve.

A copy of DevLogix by Steve Redmond will help.. but nothing replaces formal training.

Data Forms are popped from a DataGrid menu, or a special custom script call.......time to start doing some reading (or search this forum).

You know, funny thing - I just dealt with this at the end of last week - I kept trying to launch a data form via the menu and getting the error message that the form couldn't be found. I then realized that it couldn't be done. The only way to launch a data form is by using the EditView option of the datagrid or by running the "Application.BasicFunctions.ShowViewForRecord" method. Apparently if you don't open the form via the data route, SalesLogix will tell you it can't find the form - dumb error message, as it doesn't tell you what the real issue is. That might be htet's problem. Of course, learning how to work in SalesLogix is important, but that little misleading error message isn't very helpful either.

There's not a lot for us to go on here, but at a guess, it sounds like you're attempting to launch it using DoInvoke. You need to use ShowViewForRecord to launch a data bound form.
