Table Designer does not delete the correct row. (1450 previews)
Table Designer does not delete the correct row.	Posted in 09th, 01/2006 09:17 by j_schatz
I am in table designer and I determine that I must remove a column (row to table designer). I select the row and click on the red X. A popup appears asking me to confirm this action which I say Yes. The selected row is removed as I watch. Now I click on the save button to save my work. After the save is finished and the page refreshed, the row that I deleted is still there. After some investigation, I determined that the row ABOVE the selected row is actually being deleted. No wonder my table kept getting smaller and smaller as I frantically tried to remove the intended row. My workaround for now is to purposely select the row BELOW the row that I want to delete. Go ahead and delete it and then save. After the save, the correct row is actually removed. This seems to be acting like the INSERT row feature where the row ABOVE the currently selected row is where the new row is inserted. Maybe the same code is handling both actions. If the row you want removed is the last one then things get a bit more complex. First, note the data in the row just above the row you want to remove. Next, select the row you want removed and delete it. Save your work and observe that the good row above the one you want deleted is now gone. Open a new record at the end of the list. Insert the lost record at the bottom so it is below the record you want removed. Save your work (I am parinoid). Now go to the newly created (good) entry and select it and delete it. Save the record and now the bad record should be gone with the original good data still in place. Whew! . By the way, this problem sounds like another problem in the BugReport forum. Search for "delete row" to find the other reports. Jim /

Hi, Thanks for the feedback. This is a bug indeed and it is fixed already. The correction will be in the next release coming next month. Just as a curiosity: which database engine are you using? Best Regards, Support / DBTools Software

Dear support, I am using MySQL 5.0 as my database engine. This bug is not holding up my development, now that I have a workaround. Thanks for your quick response to my forum entry. It is appreciated. Jim /

Same problem here. Didn't ocurr until I updated to Enterprise edition and paid for the program. The "shareware" version worked fine. A work around is not the solution, before a user realizes what is happening they can be deleting rows and not realize the problem. The program clearly says "Delete the selected row," that's what it should be doing. Also using MySQL 5.0 Robert

February 9, 2007: One full month since the original post on this issue. Has it been resolved and where can we get the patch? This "bug" is not acceptable. I've just spent too much time editing a table then realizing that I was supposed to be selecting the rows below what I actualy am attempting to delete. Now I have to pull the back up of the table and start over. Robert /

Robert, Today we will release a bug fix. This version (3.2.2) will be only a small bug fix, no new features, no improvements. By the end of this month we plan to release the 3.3.0 version. This one should be of more importance as it will bring new (and important) features and a lot of improvements. Before releasing it we plan to spend a week or two testing it under different circunstances. We do not want to release a new version with obvious bugs, like the one in Table Designer. Also for this version (3.3.0) we have heard a lot of opinions and suggestions from our users, which means in terms that it should be more intuitive and easier to use. We apologize for the delay. We were not planning to release a bug fix only, before 3.3.0. But as this bug is quite annoying and is not possible to keep waiting for the new 3.3.0 we have decided to do this and have more time to spend in its develoment and testing. Thank you for your feedback. Best Regards, Support / DBTools Software
