Steps to Reproduce Behavior
---------------------------
To reproduce the problem, paste the following code in a new program (.prg) file
and run it:
ON ERROR DO ERR_HAND
CLEAR
CD JUSTPATH(SYS(16))
LOCAL loCONN AS ADODB.Connection, ;
loRS AS ADODB.Recordset, ;
lcConnStr as String
ERASE MyDBF.*
CREATE TABLE MyDBF (sys_cust N(8), cust_no c(6), ddate d)
INSERT INTO MyDBF VALUES (12345678,"CUST12",{})
USE IN MyDBF
lcConnStr = [Provider=VFPOLEDB.1;Data Source=] + JUSTPATH(SYS(16,0))
loCONN = CREATEOBJECT("ADODB.Connection")
loRS = CREATEOBJECT("ADODB.Recordset")
loCONN.Mode = 12
loCONN.CursorLocation = 3
loCONN.OPEN(lcConnStr)
WITH loRS
.OPEN("select * from MyDBF", loCONN, 1, 3)
.FIELDS(0) = 543543
.FIELDS(1) = "222001"
.FIELDS(2)= DATE()
.UPDATE()
.CLOSE
ENDWITH
loRS = NULL
loCONN.CLOSE
loCONN = NULL
RELEASE ALL
WAIT WINDOW "Update successful..." NOWAIT NOCLEAR
USE MYDbf
BROWSE
USE IN SELECT("MYDBF")
WAIT CLEAR
*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PROCEDURE ERR_HAND
ON ERROR
AERROR(aTest)
_CLIPTEXT = aTest(3)
DISPLAY MEMORY LIKE aTEST
RELEASE ALL
CLOSE DATABASES ALL
CLEAR ALL
