SaveRecord command¶

Include: Use Db\DBCommands.pkg

Purpose¶

Saves the current DD local buffer using command syntax.

Syntax¶

SaveRecord oDataDictionary
SaveRecord oFirstDD oSecondDD

How it works¶

• SaveRecord oDD sends SaveRecord to oDD.
• Multiple DD arguments recurse left to right.
• SaveRecord creates a record when HasRecord(oDD) is false and updates the current record when HasRecord(oDD) is true.
• SaveRecord is lower-level than Request_Save; when code needs the full DD save entry point that updates foreign keys from active parents first, call Send Request_Save of oDD instead of the command.

Example¶

Clear oCustomerDD
Move "Data Access" to oCustomerDD.Name
Move "Miami" to oCustomerDD.City
SaveRecord oCustomerDD
