totally new to this site and app development in general i have been teaching myself for a couple weeks now been looking around for a few days now to a solution to my issue
overall plan is to create an app for my work that will allow me to scan items to make an order rigt now ive been trying to get the databasing stuff down
i figured out how to read and write to the Firebase database but the read part isnt quite working that well
* i want to retrieve data from the database and insert or assign it into individual textboxes and or labels *
attached are screenshots of the designer view, codeblocks and firebase page. also i have included the .aia file as well
any help would be greatly appreciated! lemme kno if more inf is needed
thank you so much in advance!
for example
when button2.click
call database.getValue...
if text fron getValue contains [suffix]
then set dataName.text to
etc...
after looking at examples for days i thought i could have figured this out by now
i feel like there was a simpler example somewhere i came across that didnt need so many store and get value calls
somehow treating the database like a spreadsheet in a way ??
my first goal im trying to reach with this app is a customer database
with a GUI showing a place to enter the customer name and a bunch of other empty fields like phone fax email addy etc.. and when a salesperson enters a customer name then those fields would be populated automatically
which i thought would work with the databade name being customers and each customer name being a tag and each tag would have the multiple values under that ...
like rows on a spreadsheet
unless im thinking completely wromg since im so new to this
sorry for the ramblings
maybe you have more advice or can point me in the right direction to develop this sales tool
thanks again
type in a name or partial nameinstead of scolling through a, what will become a lengthy list
