Sharepoint list error <!– #RENDER FAILED –>

By peter.stilgoe

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

There seems to be a bug in MOSS 2007 which when grouping by a calculated column in a view you get the following error in your list: <!– #RENDER FAILED –>

So I have created two columns to capture someones first name & lastname, I have then created a calculated column called Fullname =(FirstName & ” ” & LastName).

When you try to group the list by full name you get the error
<!– #RENDER FAILED –> displaying in your list columns.

Not ideal but as a workaround in the short term if you set the group to display expanded the list displays correctly. Hopefully MS will fix this via hotfix or in the next service pack.
