I saw that you were able to fix your immediate problem by doing a 'Save As' however that is not really practical for long-term purposes. I can't remember if the 101 error was just a catch-all for all things gone bad with a FM datasource but it might have been. I thought of some things to check so I thought I'd just pass them along.
I do seem to recall if there were problems with data that FM Pro was expecting then the 101 error would appear. I would check the options in your field definition to make sure that there is nothing that might be preventing the insert from being accepted. You said in a later post that you're not using auto incrementing fields but there are other FM Pro field definition options that can prevent an insert. Also watch your debug to make sure that what you think might be the values being inserted are actually the values being inserted. Nothing like having a popup option set to insert a letter into a numeric field or vice versa. Also look for a pattern with specific fields causing the error. I quite often will test one field at a time until I find the culprit. You mentioned that you had reset the insert action's datasource, what about trying to recreate the insert action completely? It's a pain but try dragging a new insert action into your TAF file just above or below the existing one. Then drag the fields across from your datasource window to match what is there already, filling the values in with the same values as the original insert. Or just create a builder in another TAF and drag it across. The thing that raises my eyebrow is that you mention that you got it to work until you added another column to the insert. Have you changed the names of anything outside of Tango, such as the directory where FM is running or the name of FM or the name of the database, etc. Or have you changed anything with regards to your system such as a new version of the OS or adding something that might affect Apple Events, etc. Hope this helps, Steve Smith Skadt Information Solutions Office: (519) 624-4388 GTA: (416) 606-3885 Fax: (519) 624-3353 Cell: (416) 606-3885 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web: http://www.skadt.com -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Tom Carr Sent: June 5, 2002 5:06 PM To: Multiple recipients of list witango-talk Subject: Witango-Talk: Insert error Anyone have an idea why an insert keeps messing up? Error An error occurred while processing your request: File: recipesubmission.taf Position: Insert Class: Internal Main Error Number: -101 Secondary Error Number: -105 Debugging does not tell me anything. I have recreated the datasource, reset the insert action datasource, checked the datasource password, recreated the insert action with no luck. This happened yesterday, and I messed with it enough that it got fixed until I added another column to the insert today. And now I can't fix it. I am doing all the same things as I did yesterday to no avail? Any ideas?
