Creating tables and importing old data: 2000 records.

rslyra 09 May, 2012
HI.

I already have some tables with data. The question is how to move them to Chrono tables. See if these is ok.

1 - create one example table by "Create table".
2 - use this to get exact definitions of "Chrona fields".
3 - create your own new table with
3.1 - all "Chrona fields" and
3.2 - all your old table fields.
4 - load data from old table and inserting in the your fields.


Ok?

What about ID ? All my tables have one ID field: auto increment but diferent names. I can change it, no problem.

The "Chrona fields" will be blank? Is this a problem?

Thanks

Hi,

You don't need to do any changes to your tables in order for them to work with either Chronoforms or Connectivity, each table should have at least 1 primary column auto_incrementing, that's all.
