To remove a DBF table or set from a workspace: Exporting Selected Records from a DBF Table Dropping DBF Tables or Sets from a Workspace If the data entry style is set to modal, then edits will automatically be disallowed after the record is saved. The Disallow Edits action prevents the user from making any changes to records in the specified form or browse window.
If your workspace gets very frequent use, you might want to back it up daily. You can provide an Alpha Anywhere setting to create weekly workspace backups of your desktop applications. You create a new workspace and DBF tables, and learn about defining data fields. In this lesson, you learn about designing a desktop application. It is a good practice to periodically remove the extra bulk by compacting the workspace. When designing forms and reports, the size of the data dictionaries (the DDD and SET files) grows over time as you continue to make edits to the objects in your workspace. This script will remove any restrictions to the records that the form displays. This demonstration of Action Scripting adds a button to the Edit_Customer_Info form. When Alpha Anywhere is refreshing a shadow workspace, it creates a file named after your database (.ADB file) by appending "LOCK" to the filename. You can backup and restore desktop applications using the Backup Workspace utility on the Desktop Control Panel. The following two scripts allow a user to take a snapshot of all of the indexes in all of the tables in their application, and then check the actual indexes against the index definitions stored in the snapshot. To attach an external library to the current workspace: Automatic Recovery of Indexes Attaching a Library to the Current Workspace You may append selected records from another DBF table to the current DBF table using the Append Operation or when viewing a DBF table through a form or browse. Appending Selected Records from another Table An "Alias" in Alpha Anywhere refers to a name you assign to represent a local directory on a computer where workspace information is stored. You can add an existing DBF table, perhaps previously created in another Alpha Anywhere workspace, or some other program, to your current workspace.Īliases let you create transportable applications.
