Database problems |
I have a database which I access only from command prompt.
I open the database with '#dbload' command.
When I try to insert data into the database from command prompt, it won't succeed, however when I press the DB button and see the database in front of my eyes, and try to insert data from command line in this state, it works.
Any ideas?
Thank you.

This is normal. From what i understand, there is no way to modify the database without it being open. You can roll it up or minimize it though to move it out of the way, and still access it.
I dont think the #DBLOAD command is actually opening the database, its just loading it into memory. |

What doomfyre said. If the DB window is not open, the associated functions and commands are not loaded into memory, so they don't work.
