    So, i have a number of Filters that have all worked fine so far, then all of a sudden one of them just stops showing the expected results, so when i goto open it, it shows a blank box where the Search Rules should be, so i delete it and try to create a new filter on that Form, and doesn’t allow me to add any Rules. If i try on a different form then it’s fine, just this one form, any ideas. See Pic

    Thx

    Odd, might have worked it out, had two fields with the same name, but different types, and just changed one of the field names, and now all working again.

    Hi David,

    The way the Search Rules work is the field names are actually stored in the Search object in the database. So if you have multiple fields with the same name, Tap Forms just picks the first one. This may or may not work properly to filter your records the way you expected if you have fields with duplicate names. So you renaming the fields was the correct way to workaround this issue.

    Thanks!

    Brendan
