RE: What is the use of Table Write() method

A quote from documentation: "Updates a record if it exists; otherwise, inserts a record". It's useful in some cases when you don't know whether a record is being inserted or updated.

RE: What is the use of Table Write() method

Write method is used on forms data source to insert or update records to database. The difference is that write calls validatewrite method. Insert method being on the table inserts records into the table. So, in form use Write and in tables use Insert.

Calling sequence in data source : validatewrite >> write >> insert or update

That's exactly what I've already answered. See the documentation by yourself.

Yes it stated same,

But if I keep the break point in that method, it's not hitting while inserting/ updating.

Hence I assume, this method will not hit while insert/ update, Can you tell me why debugger is not hitting

RE: What is the use of Table Write() method

there can be other reasons if debugger is not going there inside.

what martin told you, is correct.

msdn.microsoft.com/.../aa569665.aspx

blaming write() method for 'Debugger not working' is not correct.

write() calls insert() or update(), not the other way around.

Hi Sohalib,

Even I too agree with marin, Since it is there in Documentation.

But Form data source write() method is hitting, then what might be the debugger issue to not hit in table write method.,

And also I have written info statement in table write method, I didn't info message as well while update/insert. So it's clear that table write() method will not while insetting or updating record, and I just want to know when this method will get execute.
