error 7004

[orasbot]

for those who cares...and does not.

This error 7004 - "the rowset is not bookmarkable" has been bothering lately. I don't know what's the cause of this error but once I restart the program without changing any code or whatever, the error won't show up. This happens when i bind a datagrid control to my recordset.

thanks guys!

Another example of why not to use data binding too controls.

I don't want to use data controls and i hate data environment. I find data binding much efficient that any other. In a form wherein you need to show a master detail table and allow the user to change on both tables, i find code much more easier. thanks anyway.

Data-bound Controls Suck!
Throw the crutch away, code it yourself!

Spent some time over the weekend with this. Caren't reproduce it with bound controls. The only time l could get something similer was using code to clear the grid. Maybe something to do with delete flagged records.

Personally l use Greentree's grid control. Way simple code to clear and load the control, though their documentation leaves alot to be desired.

Our company uses either Sheridans or True dbGrid and we don't get any run time errors with those.

Maybe a bug in the MS grid control????????

i appreciate your effort. I certainly believe that this is a bug of datagrid control. I never encountered this with other controls and as i have said, it only happens during the first launch of the program.

I haven't heard of Greentee's Grid Control but I had tried the evaluation copy of VSFlexgrid. I don't have the licensed copy of the control yet since our company opted not to buy for some strange reasons, one of which is the price. That's the reason why I use datagrid control.

just one thing, can you give me the URL of the greentee's grid control so that i can evaluate it?

Thanks

Persumably their site is something like http://www.greentree.com, the grid control is cheaper than sheridans Can download a demo of the product
