Title

dbStartUp

Force ASPdb to start in the Filter or Add or Update mode. Depending on the state preferred by user, this property can be changed on the fly so that the re-entrance can go into the two special modes. Navigation buttons can be disabled to control the user's input activities.

Property Syntax

Obj.dbStartUp = "Filter|EditAdd|EditUpdate"

<%
Set X=Server.CreateObject("Asp.DB")
X.dbQuickProps="1;NWind;orders;Dual-horiz;7;std;;ACCESS;5;1;1"

Output

Notes

If you are expecting a blank DB. Read the section about blank DB.
dbStartUp="EditUpdate". The condition is that it'll update the FIRST record of the query. So the dbSQL should only retrieve ONE record for update for all practical purpose. Now user has to put in aspDBUpdateBlank for "BLANK" Update default. BLANK <> NO default !
