Dialog updates database - how to update other screens' combos/lists/tables?

[Peter Dennis]

Hi All,

I have a dialog that modifies records within my database. But when I go to a different screen where the combo box has data from that table displayed it isn't updated with the new record that has been added.

If I close my program and restart it then the combo box appears updated but I can't imagine many users wanting to do this on a regular basis.

Is someone able to tell me how I can update the combo boxes/lists/tables on other screens that use this data?

Many thanks,

Peter.

Cant say much with the existing details.
One way of doing it is to obtain a reference to the appropriate combo/list/table model and locally modify it if the DB call is successful.
