Database design changes causing errors
I have a situation where i think my DB was hard coded?? Don't know, but i got this from talking to several people about my problem.
Because this is the case, it is restricting my from changing or adding tables, or even adding clumns to a table with out it affecting other areas of the DB, meaning, forms don't close, update, data loss, and the list goes on.
I have brought this question up on this list several times in... -
The main problem is not ONLY adding the column, but not affecting other parts of the DB. Most importantly, the DB must continue to fucntion and not fail as currently. exmaple... I can't close the forms, i can't adding information through forms...
Actually adding columns to the table is not the problem, it is is doing that with out causing problems to the DB...
Hope that helps explain my current problem....Leave a comment:

How can i add a column to a fixed table??
G'day guys.
I would like to know if there is a way to add columns to a fixed table?
Each time i go to add a column, the forms don't work and all kinds of error messages result.

Is there ANY code to correct this problem??
I have a situation with my DB. I added a couple of columns to a certain table, which apparently affected many forms, rendering them inoperable. Therfore, i would like to know if there is any code out there that would help me apply changes to my DB such as add columns and tables with out causing other major errors in the DB like currently.

Not sure whatthat means by binding forms to tables???
What i do know is that EVERYTHING else on the form is; i guess binded to the table except this data, the age??
DOB, name and so forth are all visible in the table but the clients age???
Although the age of the client is visible on the form, just can't figure that out??
Also have the same for class totals...
The totals are visble on the form, but not in the table??...Leave a comment:
