CDaoTableDef::CanUpdate

BOOL CanUpdate( );
throw( CDaoException, CMemoryException );

Return Value

Nonzero if the table structure (schema) can be modified (add or delete fields and indexes), otherwise 0.

Remarks

Call this member function to determine whether the definition of the table underlying a CDaoTableDef object can be changed.

By default, a newly created table underlying a CDaoTableDef object can be updated, and an attached table underlying a CDaoTableDef object cannot be updated. A CDaoTableDef object may be updatable, even if the resulting recordset is not updatable.

For more information on tabledefs, see the articles and in Visual C++ Programmer's Guide. For related information, see the topic "Updatable Property" in DAO Help.
