ACCEPT-CHANGES( ) method

Accepts changes to the data in one temp-table or all temp-tables in a ProDataSet object.

Return type: LOGICAL

Applies to: Buffer object handle, ProDataSet object handle

Syntax

handle:ACCEPT-CHANGES( )

handle

A handle to the temp-table buffer or the ProDataSet object.

When you accept changes on a ProDataSet object handle, Progress makes the rows in all after-image tables the current version of those rows, and empties the before-image tables. When you accept changes for a Buffer object handle, Progress makes the rows in the after-image table the current version of those rows, and empties the before-image table. In either case, Progress sets the BEFORE-ROWID attribute of every row in the after-image tables to the Unknown value (?), and the ROW-STATE of every row in the after-image tables to ROW-UNMODIFIED (0).
