Hi,



I've been going to the steps of Chapter 12 from the above metioned book (Which

is in the MSDN collection January 2001) in order to get the DataCtl.ocx.



I followed the steps as described in the chapter, the result looks nice, but

the actual updating of the underlying database (Biblio.mdb) seems not to work.

As long as I am in the project and add or delete or change records, all seems to

be perfect. As soon as I quit, and restart the VB project, the changes i made

are simply not there, even checking the original database (Biblio.mdb) shoows no

signs of changes.

Where did I go wrong?



Or is there sometning missing in the steps I followed?



Any help in this would be welcome.

The problem may be that you're not committing the transaction. If you make

updates to the database, you need to do a commit. I haven't used

DataCtl.ocx, so I can't tell you exactly how to do it, but I would imagine

it's in there somewhere.
