columnControl is null

[Segi]

I have data that is displayed as a table

This is my code:

Code: Select all

tables.EMPLOYEES_REPORT_OFFICELICENSES.fetchTable();

var allOfficeLicenses=tables.EMPLOYEES_REPORT_OFFICELICENSES;
var rows=allOfficeLicenses.getRows();

while(rows.next()) {
     if (allOfficeLicenses.OFFICELICENSECOUNT.value > 1) {
          allOfficeLicenses.FULLNAME.columnControl.setBackgroundColor("yellow");
     }
}

The application is crashing wit the error TypeError: Cannot call method "setBackgroundColor" of null (EMPLOYEES_PRINTREPORT_CLICK#28)

I do this exact same thing on another form with the only difference being that I am referencing a different table. I have verified that the resource has just over 100 rows returned.

Why would it say that columnControl is null ?

Because column FULLNAME is not included in a Table Control on the current page. It's safer to check for the existence of the column control like this:

Code: Select all

if (allOfficeLicenses.FULLNAME.columnControl)
{
  allOfficeLicenses.FULLNAME.columnControl.setBackgroundColor("yellow");
}
