The Table Editor Table Field Application

This application edits the Person table in the Personnel database. It is a forms application that allows the user to update a person's values, remove the person, or add new persons. Various table field utilities are provided with the application to demonstrate how they work.

Object	Description
personnel	The program's database environment.
person	A table in the database, with three columns: name (char(20)) age (smallint) number (integer) Number is unique.
personfrm	The VIFRED form with a single table field.
persontbl	A table field in the form, with two columns: name (char(20)) age (integer) When initialized, the table field includes the hidden number (integer) column.
personrec	A local structure, whose members correspond in name and type to columns in the Person table and the Persontbl table field.

At the start of the application, a database cursor is opened to load the table field with data from the Person table. Once the table field has been loaded, the user can browse and edit the displayed values. Entries can be added, updated or deleted. When finished, the values are unloaded from the table field, and the user's updates are transferred back into the Person table.
