Title:
Updating remote views
Hi All,
I have a problem updating remote views. Here is some code to reproduce my problem. I create a Remote view (tmpView) on a Free foxpro table (tmpTable) through a Foxpro ODBC datasource (tmpconnection)
CREATE DATABASE tmpDBC
CREATE SQL VIEW tmpView REMOTE CONNECTION 'tmpConnection' ;
AS SELECT * FROM tmpTable
USE tmpView
lnFields = AFIELDS(laFields)
FOR lnTeller = 1 TO lnFields
lcField = 'tmpView.' + laFields[lnTeller,1]
IF laFields[lnTeller, 2] $ 'DT'
*!* Empty data(time) fields result in {30-12-1899}
*!* instead of empty fields, so replace
REPLACE ALL (laFields[lnTeller,1]) WITH { } ;
FOR EVAL(laFields[lnTeller,1]) = {30-12-1899}
ENDIF
IF PCOUNT() > 1 AND laFields[lnTeller,1] $ UPPER(tcIndex)
DBSETPROP(lcField, 'Field', 'KeyField', .T.)
ENDIF
ENDFOR
FOR lnTeller = 1 TO lnFields
lcField = 'tmpView.' + laFields[lnTeller,1]
DBSETPROP(lcField, 'Field', 'Updatable', .T.)
ENDFOR
DBSETPROP('tmpView', 'View', 'SendUpdates', .T.)
CURSORSETPROP('Buffering', 5, 'tmpView')
When I change something in this view an do an TABLEUPDATE() nothing changes in the original table. My tmpTable is in my c:\temp directory and the tmpConnection DSN points to that directory. Now I do the following:
REPLACE ALL nRecID WITH RECNO()
TABLEUPDATE(0, .T., 'tmpView')
CLEAR ALL
USE C:\TEMP\tmpTable
BROWSE
While TABLEUPDATE did return .T. the original table still shows the old values. What could be wrong here?
