My Table don't real Post
I use in my appa dbf file with BDE. All work perfect untill...
Couple days ago, after what I save some records in dbf file, the power go down for couple seconds and this action restart my system.
When I restart my app too, I found that allrecent inputed records , on the last sesion was lost.
Whay ?I saved these (was posted).
I repeated for couple times ( post a record and power off my system).Same results. If I close normally myappand then power off all is OK.
What to do that when I post a record in my table to b sure that is really stored on file and not to memory ( I belive that when I post the record is stored in memory and when close my app just then is saved inside thedbf file).
Best regards,
Nick
P.S.I tested already:
Table1.Post;
Table1.Close;
Table1.Open;

You need to flush the table for permanently writing the data to the disk, calling post doesn't write the data to disk immediately
Call Table1.FlushBuffers; on the after post event for writing the posted data from buffer to the disk
