I had problems with the source data being changed when I used a lookup. I
created a manual lookup table and found the same problem. Looks like the record
pointers got mixed up when using 2 tables. I fixed the source file over 20
times but I could not duplicate the key strokes that created the problem.
(Delphi 4)
I posted a problem with creating dBase3 files a few days ago and the end result
is that field names are not created correctly. (I used Dbase as I had 15 year
of programming experience with them and Excel can read them directly)
Delphi appears to create and integer type field instead of real numbers when
using the following:
if dm.tblOper.Fields[i].Datatype=ftFloat then
Add(trim(copy(dm.tblOper.Fields[i].Name,8,10)), ftFloat, 0, False);
or
FieldDefs.Assign(dm.tblOper.FieldDefs);
I have just downloaded Absolute database and so far things have worked
correctly.
