editing existing databases
|
i've added three new fields to an old databse. what i'm trying to do now, is #loopview the whole database, execute commands for each record, and adjust one of the new fields for that record.
main script:
#var openroom ""
#dbload ar
#loopview {
index = %rec.lvnum
#while (@index <= %rec.uvnum) {
#temp {No such location.} {#additem openroom @index}
goto @index
#wait
#add index 1
}
%rec.open_room = @openroom
#var openroom ""
}
its the line in blue that just doesnt work. i've tried replacing it with this:
#dbput %rec open_room @openroom
and that came close to working, put it only put the variable into 1 record 
any suggestions? |

ok, i fixed it 
the command
#addkey open_room @openroom
works perfectly. i'm still a little confused about why :
#dbput %rec open_room @openroom
didnt work tho |
