Database Savepoints
 
NOTE: Use this help file with the "TRANSACTIONS - Database - Deleting records" help file
 
SQL database connections provide one transaction capability that is unavailable for OLE database connections: the ability
to create "SAVE POINTS" within a transaction. Save points let you restore the database state to a specific poistion within
the current transaction. To set a save point within a SQL transaction, use the "Save" method:
 
trans_Delete.Save("FirstStep");
 
 
To restore a SQL transaction to a save point, specify the name of the save point in the "Rollback" method:
 
trans_Delete.Rollback("FirstStep");
