SYMPTOM(s):
Error 72 when using ALIAS
Using the following code to reproduce the issue:
FIND FIRST customer.
IF AVAILABLE test1.customer THEN
MESSAGE customer.cust-num VIEW-AS ALERT-BOX.
(before running the above code create a alias in a separated procedure using the code like:
CREATE ALIAS test1 FOR DATABASE sports.)
** cust-num is ambiguous with Customer.Cust-Num and Customer.Cust-Num (72)
** <field> is ambiguous with <table>.<field> and <table>.<field> (72)
CAUSE:
Cannot mix and match the use of alias in the code otherwise the compiler does not know resolve it.
FIX:
If you have an alias either never refer to the database name, or always refer to it.
