Any third party tools to resync datawindow with database?

[loupgarou]

Hello everyone,

I'm still using powerbuilder 6.5 (changing to 10 soon)

I've expanded a couple of hundred database fields after I successfully migrated database from sql 6.5 to sql 2000.

I now need to sync all my datawindows to take advantage of this.


the tedious way:
go to each and every data window, show sql syntax, add a space bar, return back to datawindow painter, set "update properties" , then go to every single line edit and set the edit.limit

I've already written something that can identify and log which edit.limit needs to be updated after I sync the datawindow (column types), but its still extremely tedious.

any clues?

I think there is no other way than that. You can simplify it by exporting all your datawindows to srd, then edit all affected fields, then export again the srd's.
