I am connecting to an external database using the DSNless command:
 
SET VAR vcommandC = ('SCONNECT ' + '''' +
+ ';Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=C:\Program Files (x86)\sPMS 
Program\SAMS.mdb;' + '''')
&vCommandC
 
And then SATTACH a table using the command:
SATTACH 'SegmentData' AS 'ASegmentData' USING ALL ALIAS +
ASubSection, +
ASegmentID, +
ARoad, +
ABegSeg, +
AEndSeg, +
ADistrict, +
APavementType, +
ALength, +
AWidth, +
ATotalSize, +
ALanes, +
ADirection, +
AClass, +
ARightOfWay, +
ABegMilepost, +
AendMilepost, +
AUtilities
 
I can access the table and data and run queries but I am having problems trying 
to delete and insert rows to the attached table. For example, the following 
command does not seem to work:
DELETE ROWS FROM ASegmentData WHERE(ASubSection+ ASegmentID) +
NOT IN (SELECT seg_chk FROM features WHERE sub_sys = 'CJC')
 
If a project the attached table to a local table:
 
PROJECT TEMPORARY BSegmentData FROM ASegmentData USING *
 
And run the DELETE ROWS command on the projected table it works correctly so I 
know the syntax is correct, same thing with the
INSERT INTO…
command, works great on the projected table but not on the SATTACHEd table.
 
I am obviously missing something because I am pretty sure R+Base can add/delete 
rows on external databases/tables and I believe I have done this before but I 
can’t seem to find that particular application. Any help will be greatly 
appreciated.

You can easily check this yourself. Place the following code in a command file 
makings sure that vPOID has a valid value
 
SET ERROR VAR hold
SET VAR vchk = ReceiptStatus IN PODetail WHERE PO_ID = .vPOID AND ReceiptStatus 
= 'P'
IF hold = 0 THEN
 
Trace the code one line at the time looking at variables hold and vchk.
Look at the value for vchk and hold after the code executes the second line.
This should tell you how the ERROR VAR changes depending on whether you get a 
valid value for vchk or not.

Group,
 
Part of this didn't get answered, maybe  obliquely.
 
In the OLD code
IF Hold = 0
Does that mean success or failure?

All,
 
I think I need a SQL refresher.
I need to update old code that looks like this.
 
SET ERROR VAR hold
SET VAR vchk = ReceiptStatus IN PODetail WHERE PO_ID = .vPOID AND ReceiptStatus 
= 'P'
IF hold = 0 THEN
 
So is
IF hold = 0 the same as
IF SQLCODE = 0?
 
Sorry such a dumb question.
 
Jan
