Relational writeback
To write back to a relational data source, you can use RWDB or DBEXECUTE formulas. The relational list must be writable. See these topics:
You write back in View Mode.
RWDB and DBEXECUTE support special key commands to delete values from a relational data source. The behavior of the commands depends on the datatype of the column on which the command is executed.
| Command | Writes Back: | |
|---|---|---|
| Character Datatype | Numerical Datatype | |
| DEL | "" (empty string) | 0 |
| CTRL+DEL | Null | Null |
| BACKSPACE | "" (empty string) | Has no effect |
| CTRL+BACKSPACE | "" (empty string) | Has no effect |
