Hi Egbert,
Andrew Pitonyak's "Open Office.org Base Macro Programming" on page 45
states -
The safest solution is to modify the bound field directly. For example,
your current code may be as follows:
oControl.setString("myText")
It is better if you can use the bound field:
oControl.BoundField.updateString("myText")
The required method is dependent on the data type, which is a drawback to
this method. I am aware of at least one instance where the specific method
(updateDate) failed, yet the generate updateString method properly updated
the bound field.
I have found that BoundField.updateString works well in situations such as
yours. I have also worked out how to cover the problem of using a Macro to
write to a Date field. If you ever need to do this, I could send you the
code.
