Updating the Datadictionary at run time?
I have been working on converting some reports from a legacy product to
Delphi/RB.
Getting there slowly.
As a result of a recent exchange I have changed a couple of tables. Deleted
some fields and added some.
Gotcha! When I ran the Report app it complained about missing fields. In
retrospect fair enough.
So. Rather than having to go into the DD in design moden and refresj the
'Fields', is there some way I can force the DD to refresh the fields at Run
time, thus updatingthe rbTables as appropriate?
If I can't, every time I make a structural cahnge to the tables I will need to
redo and re-issue the Report application. Pain....
Regards & TIA,
Ian
