    <p>this has been a crappy day, besides the IDE not compiling/deploying because of <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4386076/uncompilable-source-code-runtimeexception-in-netbeans">this bug</a> and waisting valuable time, I finally get it to deploy it suddenly I start getting this weird message (after compiling and running it several times):<br> <code>T:\Users\Triztian\Documents\RHT System\RHTUBSDB\src\java\controllers\OrderSearch.java:64: cannot find symbol symbol : method metadata(java.lang.Long) location: class BO.CoverForm OrderExtraInfoDTO foundInformation = frmCover.metadata(foundOrder.getReferenceNumber());</code><br> it is my understanding that this means that my method isn't declared, but thats not the situation as my method is clearly declared and coded.</p> <p><b>CoverForm.java</b>:</p> <pre><code> public OrderExtraInfoDTO metadata(Long ReferenceNumber) { OrderExtraInfoDTO foundInformation = new OrderExtraInfoDTO(); try{ foundInformation = lnkAddInformation.fetchInformation(ReferenceNumber); } catch (DAOException daoe) { this.setError("additional_information", daoe.getMessage()); } return foundInformation; } <code></pre> <p>And the servlet that calls the CoverForm.java</code> method.</p> <p><b>OrderSearch.java</b> (Extends HttpServlet):</p> <pre> CoverDTO foundCover = frmCover.search(foundOrder.getReferenceNumber()); OrderExtraInfoDTO foundInformation = frmCover.metadata(foundOrder.getReferenceNumber()); UpgradesDTO foundUpgrades = frmUpgrades.search(foundOrder.getReferenceNumber());</code></pre> <p>I've tried renaming the method and didn't have any success, any help is truly appreciated as I'm getting frustrated with NB 6.9.1 because of some crashes and another weird bug (might catch an entomologist's attention) which locks the editor and displays a message saying: "Refactoring cannot be done in the given context" whenever I press delete, forcing me to restart the IDE. <hr/> <b>EDIT</b></p> <p>Ok, so I've removed the classes that I posted and merged them in a more appropriate place, however I still get that silly symbol not found error but on a different symbol(another method) this time.</p>

    1. COHello again! The step that remains would be to check the external libraries you are using. Since you have made a new installation, the jars that are included with the package should be ok. In order to check out the libraries make a new project and write a couple of mickey-mouse programs and make sure they work right.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
