Hi Mark,
Thanks for confirming it. As I am not a commercial developer with LiveCode I
suppose I cannot report the bug.
I think you are so could you log it.
Thanks

While building a LiveCode front end to a MySQL database, I ran into the
apostrophe-in-the-data problem. My friend O'Byrne cannot get updated.
For INSERTs, the variable substitution method works great -- I can post
O'Byrne's name as a new record.
But, what should I do about UPDATE ?

Setting the cursor to busy eats cycles and adds a time-overhead.
Personal preference is to simply 'set the cursor to watch' for any actity
lasting up to a few seconds, or a progress bar updated every nth iteration
(such as n mod 100 =0) for longer routines. For indeterminate activity

Could you perhaps concatenate the user + car columns to make a new key and then
do a select from that?
e.g select * from ( select *, concat(user,car) as myKey from yourTable )
and use an appropriate where clause on that? Though it's not entirely clear
what your requirement is.

Can you explain what is different between setting cursor to busy instead of
setting cursor to watch? Why does setting cursor to bust eat cycles?
This is now a second reason not to use setting cursor to busy. The first being
that it tells the user something is seriously wrong (I didn't know this

I probably added to the confusion here, so I'll try to explain again.
The *colored* beachball cursor (drawn by OS X) is the one that means an
app is not responding. This is different than the black and white busy
cursor that you can use in LiveCode, which can be used to indicate an

Not 100% sure what you need but maybe the following might help.

If by rotate you mean like 3D then no way ;-)
I mean using grab to move a large photo around on an iPad.
What had to be done was to disable/kill the scroller that lived in the same

You're using the wrong escape.
Inside a string, you need a double single quote, not a backslash.
It's worth keeping a preSql()
Don't need to escape anything when using the :1,:2,etc notation, but if you
did, it would be ''' not \'.
The update syntax is UPDATE tablename SET colname=:1 etc

Jim, No, I was referring to rotate around a 2d point on a flat plane not 3D.
Rotating an image around a point on a 2D plane still causes anomalies on iOS in

Hi,
I wonder if someone could help please.

background when not selected.
LiveCode follows this arrangement.
In OS X when a tab is selected the background becomes a dark grey and the text
becomes white.

The 'busy' cursor is a BLACK AND WHITE spinning beachball and part of
LiveCode so it is cross platform. It is hungry and eats cycles because it
has to re-draw every time it changes.
The COLORED spinning beachball on a Mac means the app is hanging (i.e. not a
good thing). Do not use this cursor on

Yes, agreed. And in my zeal for finding a solution I overstated my case.

Are there any issues with starting a Livecode project on OSX, then copy it to a
Windows laptop , continue working on it and then going back to the OSX again.
The Windows is only during the time that I am travelling and want to continue
programming my project. At home I'll switch to my Mac again.
Fonts can sometimes be an issue, but Dropbox is your best friend for this
kind of development -- one file, stored in one place, available to all
machines.
