Dear All

I'm using SDAC 3.50 on Delphi 7.1. I have 2 forms for cutomers:

1- The first form is for displaying in a dbgrid Some details of the customers. The form contains a Dbgrid, a datasource, a Tmsquerry and 3 buttons (New, Edit and delete). (the querry is in browse mode only – No Editing)
2- The second form is for Editing, Posting new records and deleting With one other querry.

My first problem is how to send the current record to the second form for editing or deleting.

My second problem is that When the user has do some changes without posting (New record or when editing) and wants to close the second form, I Want to ask him before closing the form if he wants to save the changes or not. The property (Changecount used in dbexpress don't exist in Sdac).

Thanks a lot for your help.

The most common case without using additional query: your edit form contains db-aware controls linked to DataSet on main form. Before opening edit form you call TDataSet.Edit or TDataSet.Insert method. After all changes are made you call TDataSet.Post method to accept changes or TDataSet.Cancel to cancel them.

You can use TDataSet.Modified property to determine if the active record is modified or not.
