Hello everybody,
I'm absolutly new here and I wan't to change my existing cash-project (creating with MS Access 2007) to a Samsung Tablet 10.1n.
The first expieriences where easy and with the existing documentation very good (thanks to all, for the work), but what I can't see is a 'form', where you can fill from a table and replace any fields like 'price' or 'number' and store this to a second table.

It was important for me to know about the posibilities, before I start this project.

Thanks for the answers.

What you describe is perfectly possible to do. The fundamental difference between how you would do this in Access and B4A is that controls in B4A are not data bound and do not natively have the ability to bind fields from tables to them so edittext in B4A does not have a control source property that you would find in an Access textbox control.

There are several approaches on how you get data from a table to display in B4a. Take a look at the DUtils example for one way of doing it. http://www.b4x.com/forum/basic4andr...s-android-databases-now-simple.html#post47359

Thank you for your post, I had only a quick view to DUtils and in the next day's I will have a deeper look in it.

I will give you a feedback, what I've done.

Thanks
