Hi,
I'm using Access 2002 and I want to wrap a few things in a transaction. But things are not happening as I am expecting. For instance, within a transaction I append one record to a table. Although the table may have 100,000 records, five of them may be related to the same item and one of the fields represents quantity. My next step is to do a DSum to get the total quantity for the item. However, the quantity associated with the one record I added is not included in the total. Do I have to commit the append first?
When I try to nest transactions, the tables are not even recognized as being in the database unless I remove the transactions.
This transaction thing appears to be quite limited and I'm wondering just how useful it really is.
I looked for a good summary on transactions and not even MS has one.
Does anyone have any knowledge to share with me on transactions?
Thanks,
Mike
