True DBGrid update causes record loss

[davec8783]

I am having trouble updating data on a form containing a grid and some other controls. I made an "update" button and applied the following code to it as depicted in the manual page 75 to update changes.

Data1.Recordset.Edit
Data1.Recordset.Update

When the program is running new data in the grid is lost, instead of updated when the button is pressed.

Has anyone else encountered this?

The grid control has an update property. Works perfect. I wish they would write this stuff in the manual. I am getting tired of experimenting. You have to do a:

TDBGrid1.Update

before the

Data1.Recordset.Edit
