Is it possible to write a variable value back to a record in a table?

[canoebi99]

Hi all,

I don't think this is possible but thought I would ask the question in case there are any QV wizards out there who might suggest a way to do this!

I have a variable which holds a number value. When the user selects a particular record (i.e. applies a filter down to 1 record only) and then changes this variable I would like to have a button that then writes whatever the value in the variable is back into a field against that record. Essentially updating the data table from the front end of QV.

Is this there a way this could be acheived?

Many thanks

Ben

I am sure there is a way

Workaround may be Excel export or start reload in prepared mode, which will reload no data but store your table into qvd.
