Hi,

I have a MSAccess database that I connect to via BDE in Delphi. I'm not sure how you programmingly set the cascading update/delete property. I know you can choose Edit->Relationship in Access and enable "Cascading updates". But surely there is a way to do that in my program... right?


Any help appreciated:)

As far as I know you can't :( using a paradox database we had our own routines which just looped through the detail table records and updated / deleted the appropriate records.

It may be that there are 3rd party database components which may allow you to set this property to access tables
 
That's sad. It would be really nice if they have this option. Thanks for you help anyway.

cheers
Cathy
