Behavior Problems with MySQL

Win XP Pro
Access 97
MySQL 4.0.x

I'm attempting to convert a number of apps to MySQL backends. Having
converted the tables from the MDB backend, I'm running into a number of
differences in behavior between the app using the MDB backend and that
using the MySQL backend.

Several problems seem to boil down to the following: A "Single Form"
view form which allows users to both edit existing records and add new
records. "Allow Edits/Additions/Deletions" set to YES; "Data Entry" set
to NO.

With the MDB backend, if there are no records in the recordset
associated with the form, all of the form's controls are visible, with
defaults set, ready to create a new record. With the same form and the
MySQL backend, the form opens plain grey - no controls are visible,
apparently because there is no Current Record.

What can I do to the MySQL-related for to restore the
let-user-add-a-new-record behavior which works so well with the MDB
backend?

TIA,
-Dave

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
