TDataSource.Edit

Put the dataset in edit mode, if needed

Declaration

Source position: db.pas line 1928

public procedure TDataSource.Edit;

Description

Edit will check AutoEdit: if it is True, then it puts the Dataset it is connected to in edit mode, if it was in browse mode. If AutoEdit is False, then nothing happens. Application or component code that deals with GUI development should always attempt to set a dataset in edit mode through this method instead of calling TDataset.Edit directly.

Errors

An EDatabaseError exception can occur if the dataset is read-only or fails to set itself in edit mode. (e.g. unidirectional datasets).
