Edison,

you have been 'gotchad' by the client - not the server.

To fix it, do this :

in the IDE, double clik on the query
in the property editor that comes up, click on the columnattributes tab.
You should see that 'Required' is ticked - clear it.

Recompile and try gain.

The problem is that the Client has been 'told' that the field is required,
so expects you to put a value in it. The default will be applied at the
server after a post, but because the post never gets there - due to the
required flag - it cannot be applied.


HTH.


Regards,
Norman.

Subject: [IBO] Default value X Query Insert


Using Firebird and IBO 4Gc. If I try to make a IB_Query insert in a
table that have fields like that:
field1 integer default 10 not null,
and do not use a specific instruction like:
table1.fieldbyname('field1').value := 10;
to send a value to this field am I getting an error, informing that
field1 needs a value!
It apears that the default value are not working or something else is
missing. Where are my error ?
Thank you
Edison
