I'm having problems _updating_ the contents of an existing record in my database. I've looked through the archives on this one and found a post that talked about using DmAttachRecord along with the regular DB Manager functions to make this happen. [from the archive snip....] Another alternative to modify an existing record is to: 1) Use DmNewHandle to create a chunk to contain the new contents of the record. 2) Use MemHandleLock, DmWrite, and MemHandleUnlock to fill in the contents of the new record. 3) Use DmAttachRecord to put replace an existing record with the new one. 4) Use MemHandleFree to free the chunk with the old contents of the record. The advantage of this approach is that it's less likely to corrupt the database if the process is interrupted, whether due to a bug or the user forcing a reset. You can find examples of both approaches in the PIM apps [/from the archive snip...] I've implemented this and I still get two copies of my record - the new one and the old one with the same name. Any suggestions? Also, Danny's post referenced the source code for the PIM apps in the SDK...I have the SDK, but where is the source code for the examples? Thanks!
