Setting Defaults on a Paradox table...

Caption says it all: Database desktop (when used to create a table)
allows you to set defaults for certain fields (ie. a boolean = True) --
How can this be done at run-time, when creating a table? (That's the only
thing I can't figure out...)

Re:Setting Defaults on a Paradox table...

Hi Jason,
You can change field defaults at runtime by using DbiDoRestructure
(BDE API) call. See examples at
