creating new tables from old tables
Hi We are using D3 on w95 to develop a system that stores data in a table. The table (Paradox) has about 100 fields. (yeah, I know) We need to be able to create multiple such tables from within our application. (so that each project can be stored in it's own table) We have found a way to do this, and it creates the new table file and we can add records to it, fine.... but, it doesn't carry across the default values and constraints attached to the fields. How do we do this? We tried copying the .val files from the original table to the new name but got a 'file open' error while the .val still existed. Also, we are developing the code on a Novell Netware environment and while the boss can access the .db files from his PC (he created them), I can't, I get 'paradox not set up for net access' exceptions. Where and how do I set it up for net access? thanks very much steam and wind -- David Forsyth DAFkite A-T Iwr.Ru.Ac.Za Keeper of the listserver for South African Railways fans _|_ His Part time gricer, kiter, photographer, father etc etc | Way http://www.ru.ac.za/departments/iwr/staff/daf/welcome.html | Up For reduction of advertising mail, my return address is invalid.
