Example 1

In this example, a table in a database tracks changes of OLE objects; when the user saves an Excel spreadsheet in an OLE control, this code puts the current date in a DataWindow so that the database table can be updated:

long ll_row

// Find the row with information for the Excel file

ll_row = dw_1.Find("file_name = 'expenses.xls'", &

   1, 999)


IF ll_row > 0 THEN

   // Make the found row current

   dw_1.SetRow(ll_row)


   // Put today's date in the last_updated column

   dw_1.Object.last_updated[ll_row] = Today( )


   // Update and refresh the DataWindow

   dw_1.Update( )

   dw_1.Retrieve( )

ELSE

   MessageBox("Find", "No row found")

END IF
