For example:
If I change the fields SALARY and MODIFIED I would receive the error “Unknown column MODIFIED in field list”

OK. One solution would be the use of SQLUpdate property, specifying the sentence for update:
But… this implies that the field NAME would be updated even if the only field really changed is SALARY. And this could lead to problem. Imagine that, at the same time, ComputerA changes the field NAME and ComputerB changes the field SALARY. The data from the last computer to apply would prevail.

Could anyone please help me?

Not sure I understand the question. If you have multiple clients updating the same data, you need some form of locking. There are various ways to do this.

Thanks, David. Putting it simpler: Is there a way to tell TMyQuery not do update a certain field?

I don't know. I usually use TMyCommand to do updates. I don't know what TMyQuery can do.

Ok, David. Thanks.
