Dear Folks,

I'm trying to update records from Win95 to local tables on my Win95 machine and also remote records running under Linux.

I've used a number of different Win95 clients, such as Visual dBASE, and some others, and I keep getting the intermittent error message: "couldn't perform the edit because another user changed the record" (or something to that effect.)

Has someone run across this? I know that no one else is using the tables. Is it an ODBC problem, or something else?

Thanks!

Hi Peter

You must have one TIMESTAMP and a PRIMARY KEY in each table you use with
MS-programs via ODBC. Without them you get the above error message.
