hallo Michael ,
In the past i did some test with a odb file connected to a MS SQL
server over ODBC. When I changed column widths and then saved the ODB
file, and after reopening the formating is remembered.
BUT it is still a mistery for me where this info is stored :-)

Hi Ocke,
still couldn´t find the solution to get the column default values and
column descriptions working.
We have two default values
1. "DefaultValue" and
2. "ControlDefault"
The 2nd is stored inside the odb file db:default-value. The 1st is
stored inside the database. The problem now was to get the default value
from the database when moving to the insert row. This wasn't possible,
here ControlDefault was invited. So when you use the table designer to
create a table you always insert the ControlDefault. To change for
example the wizard you have to set the DefaultValue at the column
descriptor. The source code for the table designer can be found in
dbaccess/source/ui/tabledesign
I would like to store default values and the column descriptions in the odb
files as we do not fully support them in the database. Is it right that base
can do this for us or must the driver implement the functionality to store
the values in the odb files? I have neither an idea how to tell base to do
this for me nor how to do it my self in the driver :(
At the moment the default values and the column descriptions can be set,
but they are lost as soon as you close the connection. This is because
the corresponding properties of the drivers column objects are set correctly,
but there is no code in the driver to save/restore them to/from the odb.
Best regards,
Micha
