U – Update a Database on Screen

This option allows update of all the data items within a database (similar to the DataFiler options to Update Database Records) on a screen. Each screen lists 16 items from the database and subsequent screens display the remaining items. No validation is available for lookup items etc nor are any file relationships maintained.The ‘U’ action is mostly used to maintain ‘status code’ databases or as part of any ‘Installer’ routines you may define in the application.
