Auto IDs
(OP)
Hello, again!
I have a table with your standard Update window and procedure that works fine. When a new record is created, the ID field is incremented by one in the new record automatically.
Now I have some Embedded code trying to create a new record manually in the same table:
TABLE1:Field1 = TABLE2:Field1
...
ADD(TABLE)
I'm not specifying the TABLE:ID field assuming the system would increment the value automatically. But, the new record is created and the assigned values are saved to each field -- except the ID field which is always 0.
I'm now assuming I have to specify TABLE:ID = -- but to what?

RE: Auto IDs
You may use this code in place of add(<tableName>)
CODE
Access:<tableName>.Insert()
This should do it

RE: Auto IDs
That code looks odd to me. I got 4 Syntax Errors when I compiled the program with those recommended changes.
We have Clarion 5. Is that code only supported in a higher version?

RE: Auto IDs
Just Access:<tableName>.Insert() should be enough as PrimeAutoInc might add a empty row/record.

RE: Auto IDs
You are using the LEGACY template - Access:<tableName>.Insert() is ABC.
Declare an ALIAS for the SALESProspects and use the ALIAS file to find the next ID. Do a loop check for duplicates in case two users are trying at the same time.
CODE
ADD(SALESProspects)
IF ERRORCODE() = 43
<IDColumn> += 1
CYCLE
ELSIF ERRORCODE()
!handle error
END
BREAK
END

RE: Auto IDs
Correction. It should be IF ERRORCODE() = 40 ! DupKeyErr ...
