BUG: No Field Marked as Needed in DataForm Wizard for Access DB (173973)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Visual InterDev 1.0
This article was previously published under Q173973 SYMPTOMS
Use the DataForm Wizard against an Access database. When you reach the Step
3 of 7 titled "Choose fields for your form," no field is marked as
required, even when they have their Nullable property set to false.
CAUSE
This bug is caused by a problem with the Access ODBC driver. When using the
procedure SQLColumns, it gives wrong information for the field number 11,
which is the Nullable property.
RESOLUTION
Be careful when using an Access database. Before using the DataForm Wizard
inquire what fields are not Nullable in the table or view you will choose.
You have to select all the fields that are not Nullable if you want the
user to update, add, or delete records from your database.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed
at the beginning of this article. We are researching this bug and will post
new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes
available.
