G'Day,
Env: ADO - SQL7
BDE - Paradox
I have either a TADOQuery or a TQuery listing some records linked to a db
grid. What is the most elegant way to tell if a record is locked __before__
the user edits the record? A nice to have, but not essential would be to be
able to colour the grid showing any records that are locked. I realise this
is non-trivial given the multitude of cursor options etc. etc. but some
pointers would be really appreciated....
I would prefer not to have to do:
try
TheDataSet.Edit;
.....
TheDataSet.Post;
except
//Handle exception when posting record and it is locked
end;
