Just a question like this.... are you using a SQLQuery to get your
information and display it? If yes, (from Delphi experience), you
can't commit like that the changes. In Delphi the programmer required
to use another object... a kind of SQLCommit (???) object and define
there the required SQL commands to send the updates and other actions.
I can't help any more because I never used that thechnique and data
aware controls when working in SQL. (Maybe I should have.)
Regards.
