The following problems are corrected in platform update 938138:
You receive the following error message when you import text objects:
The property exceeds the buffer size.
You receive this error message when you import text objects if several languages are built in to Microsoft Dynamics NAV 4.0. This can cause the text in the text objects to become too long. When you import a text object that contains multilanguage values that contain text that is too long, the text object cannot be imported into Object Designer. After you install this platform update, Microsoft Dynamics NAV separates multilanguage values for text objects into separate lines.
When you code an error message in a Global trigger in the ApplicationManagement codeunit (1), the error message is not displayed.
This problem occurs because error messages for unhandled errors are not displayed if the error occurs after the trigger is run. After you install this platform update, Microsoft Dynamics NAV displays error messages for unhandled errors even though the error occurs after the trigger is run.
Microsoft Dynamics NAV 4.0 Service Pack 3 may crash when you run the Maintain Relationships function.
This problem is caused by a broken relationship. After you install this platform update, the Maintain Relationships function will not cause Microsoft Dynamics NAV to crash if a relationship is broken.
When you compile an object, the language layer is removed.
This problem occurs because too many language layers are attached to an object. After you install this platform update, you will receive an error message when you compile an object that has too many language layers.
Matrix scroll bars may be disabled.
This problem occurs if you adjust the screen resolution to larger than 1,280 x 1,024 pixels. After you install this platform update, you can adjust the screen resolution without causing the matrix scroll bars to be disabled.
Microsoft Dynamics NAV 4.0 may crash when a C/AL code loop is running in a Citrix environment.
After you install this platform update, Microsoft Dynamics NAV will prevent some C/AL code loops from causing Microsoft Dynamics NAV to crash in a Citrix environment.
Matrix columns become too small after you resize them.
This problem occurs because the correct metric value is not stored in the .zup file when the screen resolution is set very high. After you install this platform update, the metric value that is stored in the .zup file is changed from MatrixWidth to PaneWidth. This change prevents matrix columns from becoming too small after you resize them.
The Show Column option does not work if no columns have the FOCUSABLE parameter set to "Yes."
This problem occurs because the Show Column option is not always visible. After you install this platform update, the Show Column option is always available. You cannot remove the last focusable column.
The GETVERSION statement in C/FRONT code works inconsistently depending on the version of Microsoft Dynamics NAV that you are using.
This problem may occur if the CFront.dll file is not loaded. For example, the ConnectServerAndOpenDatabase function is not called before the GetVersion function returns the version of the CFront[sql].dll file that is set by the dllName property. After you install this platform update, you can use the GetVersion function before you open the database connection.
In Microsoft Dynamics NAV SQL Option, not all the languages from the installed operating system are supported.
This problem occurs because only a limited list of operating system languages is included in the language list for Microsoft Dynamics NAV SQL Option. After you install this platform update, the list of operating system languages is no longer limited. The list will now be populated with the languages that are supported by the installed operating system.
Sum Index Flowfield Technology (SIFT) totals are incorrect.
This problem occurs when the SumIndexField field is part of a key sum. This problem occurs because the SIFT table became corrupted during the update operations on the main table. After you install this platform update, the SIFT table is updated correctly.
Variant variables may cause Microsoft Dynamics NAV to crash.
This problem occurs when Microsoft Dynamics NAV tries to convert the stack elements for variant variables. After you install this platform update, Microsoft Dynamics NAV no longer tries to convert the stack elements for variant variables.
You may be unable to access Microsoft Dynamics NAV tables that have Spanish characters such as "á" and "é" when you use Microsoft Dynamics NAV Open Database Connectivity (NODBC).
This problem occurs if you use the NODBC tool that was released in platform update 931841 for Microsoft Dynamics NAV 4.0 Service Pack 3. After you install this platform update, the ANSI-to-OEM conversion for table names will function correctly in NODBC.
You experience slow performance in Microsoft Dynamics NAV 4.0 on a computer that is running Microsoft SQL Server 2005.
This problem occurs because Microsoft Dynamics NAV generates queries that have an OPTION FAST(x) hint. This hint may cause slow performance. After you install this platform update, Microsoft Dynamics NAV will no longer use the OPTION FAST(x) hint in SQL Server queries.
When you try to access a Microsoft Dynamics NAV table that has Spanish characters, you receive the following error message:
The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object <tablename>. Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly" when you try to access Navision tables with some country local characters (like á, é, ü...).
You may receive the following error message:
The expression variant cannot be type-converted to a Text value.
You receive this error message because automation variables are handled differently in builds 23305 and 24080.
A supported platform update is now available from Microsoft. The platform update corrects the problem that is described in this article. Apply the platform update only to systems that are experiencing this specific problem.
To resolve this problem immediately, contact Technical Support for Microsoft Dynamics and related products to obtain the platform update. You can log on to the Microsoft Dynamics site and create a new support request. To do this, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
You can also contact Technical Support for Microsoft Dynamics and related products by telephone at (888) 477-7877.
Note In special cases, charges that are ordinarily incurred for support calls may be canceled if a Technical Support Professional for Microsoft Dynamics and related products determines that a specific update will resolve your problem. The usual support costs will apply to any additional support questions and issues that do not qualify for the specific update in question.
How to obtain the Microsoft Dynamics NAV hotfix or update files
After you request a Microsoft Dynamics NAV hotfix or an update file from Technical Support for Microsoft Dynamics, a hyperlink will be sent to you in an e-mail.
The e-mail will contain a hyperlink and a password. You can use the hyperlink to download the Microsoft Dynamics NAV hotfix or the update files. When you click the hyperlink, the File Download – Security Warning dialog box opens. Then, you are prompted to run, to save, or to cancel the download.
