Hi Radha,

The error message usually identifies the where the error occurs. EX:

My error message Divide by zero at line 5 in clicked event of object cb_2 of w_my_calculator_more.
Line 5 in Clicked event result = a / b
My fix: if b = 0 then
   SetNull(result)
else
​   result = a / b
​end if

Actual fix depends on context. For runtime error 36 I would look for potentially misspelled property name or reference to a non-existent object.

Hi Radha, add-on to my initial answer.

​If you see runtime error 36 when using .object notation into a DataWindow, well - then try alternate style.









.object notation

Alternate code









// Access data in a (row/column)

ls_name = ​dw_1.object.dept_name[row]

ls_name = dw_1.GetItemString(row, "dept_name")

​// You may get "error 6: Invalid DW row/column" 





​// Access data in numbered (row/column)

ldec_salary = ​dw_1.object.data[10,20]

ldec_salary = dw_1.GetItemDecimal(10, 20)

​// You may get "error 6: Invalid DW row/column"





// Change property

dw_1.object.salary.BorderType = ...

string ls_status

ls_status = ​Modify("salary.BorderType = ...")

​if ls_status > "" then

   ​// ls_status holds error message

end if   





// Read property

ll_borderType = dw_1.object.Salary.BorderType

string ls_border

​ls_border = dw_1.Describe("Salary.BorderType")

​if ls_border = "!" then

   // Error in your "describe"

else

​  ll_borderType = long(ls_border)

​end if
