>>Any quick tips on the NO-NOs of talking to ACCPAC? I corrupted a record within 10 minutes yesterday. Is there an updated ODBC driver (I'm using 7.51.160.00)? Or maybe I should avoid INSERT INTO and stick with APPEND BLANK?

>APPEND BLANK doesn't work with ODBC; you have to use INSERT INTO. I haven't done a lot of updating ACCPAC data, mostly querying. One thing to watch out for is to ensure you're properly filling key and audit fields (the audit fields are the ones starting with "AUDT"), and filling in all required fields (I don't have a list of those, unfortunately).

Thanks for the tip on the AUDT fields. I'm not longer corrupting them. I am still ending up with a corrupt ID field. My new key is definitely unique. I'm wondering if I have to append the same record to multiple tables to satisfy relations setup in Pervasive. Any idea?
