I've integrated a separate file as my contact table. It works well except it doesn't display the full name in the event. 
In any event I click the contact field and the side bar opens and allows me to search ("smith")  just fine. It displays the name ("Smith, Holly") the way I set it up (last name, first name). I choose her entry and the correct name "Smith, Holly" appear in the event under Contact. However when I click the "Save & Close" button and then reopen the event, I see only "Holly". The calendar itself shows the correct full name when on the Week view.  How can I fix this?

(That's the field were DayBack *reads* even data from.) I'd check out that field definition and see if the variable sc_contactName is using your table's full name or just the first name. Here is how we have that line pointing at the full name in our sample data: sc_contactName = SampleContacts::NameFull ; Hope that helps, John John Sindelar SeedCode |
