It's been "working right" for quite a long time .. my business relies on it "working right" .. (!) >another thing with your editor is that it's filled with mysql specific >statements For example? Do yourself a favour - try MySQL!

Mmm, Maybe it's me, but I'm not seeing anything it doesn't already do ... ??? Agreed except that I couldn't get your app running due to me not having mysql - bummer!!! so i couldn't actually get the project running that i downloaded from the url you gave me. All objects / returned data etc are available to the user .. true it's via method and property calls, but this is the way it should be in an OOP system .. we don't expose raw data(!) what i was suggesting was perhaps an intermediate step until you get your program working right. But i tried it as a sample by making the visible property to false and - got to form_open statement and died!!! So that idea without refinement is dead! another thing with your editor is that it's filled with mysql specific statements (my ignorance is showing here) or do mysql & postgres share similar properties? dave.

Hi Garth, got the version listed on the website shown below and able to follow it BUT i don't use mysql but postgres but it's interesting to see what you've done by walking thorough your code as far as i can. Been thinking here and please you or anyone else correct me but couldn't this be done? 1. using the DB demo form and code. import that into your project enter connection strings to enable a valid connection to a RDBMS. having the form hidden at run-time so it's available to use but not visible to the user. 2. using the Rrequest form code as an object (thus allowing multiple table connections) and having the recordset be returned back to the user code for further actions. that could reduce a lot of repeatitive coding for every project. eg. for every DB Control in a programmers project you would either share the recordset (thus a move in 1 control would be the same move in the others) object OR create/have new recordsets for each DB Control. 3. control of writting data into the tables could also be managed via the code within the Frequest code. from my observations it looks doable and with my limited coding knowledge of Gambas be easily incorporated into the next build cycle. ***** snipped ***** The closest thing you're going to get for the moment is GridEditor. http://gambasrad.org/software/gambas-grideditor ***** snipped ***** Get the world's best email - http://nz.mail.yahoo.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ Gambas-user mailing list Gambas-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user -- Managing Director, Encryptec Limited Tel: 0845 5082719, Mob: 0785 3305393 Email: gar...@encryptec.net Statements made are at all times subject to Encryptec's Terms and Conditions of Business, which are available upon request. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ Gambas-user mailing list Gambas-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user Easy recipes for Christmas entertaining on Yahoo!Xtra Lifestyle- http://nz.lifestyle.yahoo.com/food-recipes ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ Gambas-user mailing list Gambas-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user -- Managing Director, Encryptec Limited Tel: 0845 5082719, Mob: 0785 3305393 Email: gar...@encryptec.net Statements made are at all times subject to Encryptec's Terms and Conditions of Business, which are available upon request. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ Gambas-user mailing list Gambas-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user
