ImportRow requires AcceptChanges

[Ben Hunsberger]

I have two datasets

ds1, ds2 as mytypedds

I programmatically make a change to a row in ds1

row = ds1.tbl1(0)
row.qty = 5

I then import this row to ds2

ds2.clear()
ds2.tbl1.importrow(row)
row2 = ds2.tbl1(0)

Strangly enough row2.qty = 0, unless I preceed with row.acceptchanges.

What gives?

Hi, this is what docs say about ImportRow:

"Calling NewRow adds a row to the table using the existing table schema, but
with default values for the row, and sets the DataRowState to Added. Calling
ImportRow preserves the existing DataRowState, along with other values in
the row."

Yes, I read that. "Along with other values in the row" would mean that the
value of qty after importing should be 5 not zero.

Unless "preserve" changed its meaning in the dictionary to me "reset"
