[ODBC Visual FoxPro Driver]Invalid argument value
I found the culprit, there was nothing wrong with my coding at all it was
the table structure, even though I dont know why..
I had been using a memo field, but when I was updating or adding to the
taable i didnt add anything to this field i just left it blank, but it was
allowed to accept null values.. This worked fine when adding a record but
when modifying a record and keeping the memo field blank it gave me that
stupid error.
If anyone can explain why this happened because it makes absolutly no sense
at all.
I just changed memo to charachter 254 and it works fine.
