Invoice Address: County/State/Province:

[datarax]

Hi Bruce,

I had already ticked that, so I had a play, couldnt get it to work so to check I reversed everything you had suggested and put it back to how I had it originally been and the drop downs have gone.

I am now back to my original position of having a county box that is not remembered.

This problem must have been solved simply by others as there are no other posts.

I would like it to be remembered , but if it won't, its not the end of the world.

Unless you can come up with a simple solution that I can get to work, then I would like to thank you for your help and will leave it as it is..

Kind regards

Rob

Hi Rob

I don't have any answers, but some reassurance for you, we work closely with Royal Mail and several national couriers and unfortunately the 'County' address line is generally no longer considered necessary so long as you have a valid post code and first line of the address.

Brian

Hi Brian,

Thanks for the reassurance us we web novices need it some time!!!

Yep I'm having the same problem

All I want is the County box to be remembered as all the other info seems to be - my client is kicking off about it...

Is there anyway of simply the county text field remembering (for any UK county) without doing all that stuff in business settings??

Thanks

Sam

If you remember my county, I will remember yours, cause actinic won't remember any at all.

I am sure that counties are important to people

Hi All,

I have asked Development to see if they can come up with a way for Actinic to remember the County/State/Province information without the need to have a County/State/Province defined for the Country in Advanced | Locations. The reason for this not being remembered at the moment is because the determination of what to use for County/State/Province is very complex, due to determining if the data is required for Tax or Shipping or not.

I will keep you updated.

Kind regards,

[Bruce]

Correction to post:

Hi,

Development have come back with a solution, it seems to work okay but there could potentially be unexpected side affects so the usual statement with regards to backups etc apply.

Edit ActinicPXML.pm
Search for...

$sReplace =
ACTINIC::GetCountryName($::g_LocationInfo{INVOICE_REGION_CODE});

immediately after the above insert...

if (!$sReplace)
{
$sReplace = $::g_BillContact{'ADDRESS4'};
}

Search for...

$sReplace =
ACTINIC::GetCountryName($::g_LocationInfo{DELIVERY_REGION_CODE});

immediately after the above insert...

if (!$sReplace)
{
$sReplace = $::g_ShipContact{'ADDRESS4'};
}

Save and exit.
Upload site.

Kind regards,

Hi Bruce, Its a long time since you posted this, but I did not see it. I tried to do it but cannot open the .pm file. Any chance of posting a pre-altered file.I will then try it and post the results (good or bad).

If it helps - You can open .pm files in notepad.

if I understood pearl script I am sure that I could add on the changes in the right place, but having tried to add but I keep getting error messages that suggest I have put in the wrong place. Does anybody have the correctly amended script and if so could they attach it to a post.Thanks in anticipation.

Hi Rob,

Please could you advise what version of Actinic are you running. Each script is version related, so if someone was to give you a 7.0.6 script and you running 7.0.4, then it will not work. Please check in "Help | About.." and tell us the version number. I can then do the script change for you.

Kind Regards

Hi Nadeem, Version 7.0.6.0.0.0.GBA. Thanks for the assistance.

Hi Rob

Please find attached the 'ActinicPXML.pm', this will work. I can see why it was not working before in Bruce posting, that because it doesn't have a closed bracket, which will cause an general script error.

The last bit should be

if (!$sReplace)
{
$sReplace = $::g_ShipContact{'ADDRESS4'};
}

So you are closing the if statement.

Anyway, extract the zip into your site1 folder, and update the site.

Kind Regards

County remains where it should.

. Thanks to every one for their help, my counties now remain where they should and I do not need to re-enter ech time I go to the address details area. It appears to work correctly without bugs.
