Title: DBISavechanges
Question: How do I prevent the BDE from loosing information in an application when the PC locks up.
Answer:
Use the BDE API call DBISavechanges(handle). This will save all data in buffers directly to the database thus preventing a loss of data should anything go wrong in the current database session.
Example
Add BDE to the forms uses clause
procedure TDataform.qryEmployeeAfterPost(DataSet: TDataSet);
begin
DBISavechanges(qryEmployee.handle);
end;
