I'm using RB 5.5.5 on an iMac w/ macos 9.2.2

Following the use guide, I have a window set up with a datacontrol in it
bound to the database file, which I have dragged into my project window, and
to the table I want.

I have created edit fields, and bound them to the data control and the
fields I want.

I have four buttons in the window, bound to the data control, for new,
delete, insert, and update.

Since the datacontrol is bound to the data file, do I have to open the file
programmatically, or is it done automatically? Regardless, I do it on
app.open, and I get a good connect message. However, when I add records, the
data control is not activated, that is, I can't use it to see the records
I've added.

Does someone have a simple example of how to use a simple database? Or can
someone tell me what else I have to do besides set up the window like I
have?

Thanks

Larry
