I would like copy a text with TEXT.COPY in a session with main table (tdsls4102s). The field tdsls041.txta in the session is o.k., but there is no update in the table record.
Thanks
Werner

Hello Werner,

The function returns the new text number in the first argument.
You need to assign the value to tdsls041.txta
__________________________________________________

string src.text( 13 )
string dst.text( 13 )

src.text = "ttmmm999.txta"
dst.text = "tdsls041.txta"

text.copy( dst.text,src.text .... )
tdsls041.txta = lval( dst.text )

Perhaps you should consider posting the source, if the problem still consists.

The problem is not a problem from copy.text. Copy.text is working, the value from tdsls041.txta is o.k.. But there is not update from tdsls041.txta in the table record.

Here is the code:

text.lines = TEXT.COPY("tdsls041.txta","itm.txts",""....)
commit.transaction()

after this the new text is in the Session tttxt1100m000 o.k.
the value from tdsls041.txta is the new textnumber (in the debugger)

the next line is:

execute(update.db)

but there is no update in the table record

if I call

execute(text.manager)

the textmanger create a new text record.
thanks

attr.textmode

insert the following instruction:

attr.textmode = 3 | read/write mode

Hi,

attr.textmode = 3 do not work. This is no solution. I think the problem comes from the record in the database. There ist the value of tdsls041.txta = 0. And I dont know, how I can update the record.
Thanks

Hello,

Has the record you are attemping to update been read for update? E.g. using select ... from ... for update

Perhaps, you should consider posting your source code or sending it per e-Mail. This way is possible more efficient.
