Hi, If "virtualcolumn" is not a column in the database, but created in ClientDataSet, create it as a InternalCalc field. InternalCalc fields can be used as a normal field in runtime, but are not updated with the database.
Hope this helps, Vishak -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- Original Message ----- From: Ridwan Haris To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, June 22, 2006 12:44 PM Subject: [delphi-en] client data set, prevent the field from updating onto the db.. How to prevent one of the field in clientdataset from updating onto the db? I set the ProviderFlags( pfInUpdate,pfInWhere etc) for that field('myvirtualcolumn') all to false and my DataSetProvider update mode i set to upWhereChanged or upWhereKey but it seems doesnt solve my problem it keeps returning error 'Invalid column name "myvirtualcolumn'...'.. Any idea how to solve this problem? Thanks. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------ Yahoo!
