This is something I tried so that I could just Get a value from the database
so that I could display it.
theValue.BeginningValue is a floating point number.
UniqueID is just the record's ID tag
CharPtr GetValue(UInt UniqueID)
{
tblValue theValue;
VoidHand valueHandle = DmGetRecord(gValueDB, UniqueID);
UnpackValue(&theValue, MemHandleLock(valueHandle));
MemHandleUnlock(valueHandle);
return ((CharPtr)&theValue.BeginningValue);
}
What I'm using to display the information is:
SetFieldTextFromStr(NfoStartofValueValueField, GetValue(1));
Where it takes the CharPtr and places it in the Field.
It compiles, etc, but when I run it, I get a DataManager error. My best
guess is that it has to do with the way I'm attempting to get the value from
the database... I dunno. I figure I'm probably going about this all the
wrong way, but if someone could please help, I'd appreciate it.
