Occurs before DBSetProp(В ) runs. There are two versions of the syntax.

PROCEDURE dbc_BeforeDBSetProp(cName, cType, cProperty, ePropertyValue) 
PROCEDURE dbc_BeforeDBSetProp
LPARAMETERS cName, cType, cProperty, ePropertyValue

Parameters

cName


Specifies the value of the first parameter in the DBGetProp(В ) function, the name of the database, field, named connection, table, or view for which DBSETPROP(В ) changes the value.
cType


Specifies the value of the second parameter in the DBSetProp(В ) function, the object type of the item named in cName.
cProperty


Specifies the value of the third parameter in the DBSetProp(В ) function, the property for which DBSETPROP(В ) changes the value.
ePropertyValue


Specifies the value of the fourth parameter in the DBSetProp(В ) function, the value to be assigned to the property in cProperty.

For details on valid cType and cProperty values, see DBSETPROP(В ) and DBGETPROP(В ) in Help.

Remarks

You can use the dbc_BeforeDBSetProp event to track attempted access to the database before DBSETPROP(В ) runs.

Return .F. from this procedure to prevent the property value from being set. This will cause the DBSetProp() function to return .F..

Some property values can be changed using DBSetProp(В ) or using a designer. For example, you can change the Comment property for a table using DBSetProp(В ) as well as from the table designer. Because DBSetProp(В ) makes changes directly to the database itself, dbc_BeforeModifyTable or dbc_AfterModifyTable will not catch changes made by DBSETPROP(В ). To trap for changes that could be made either way, you would need to use dbc_BeforeDBSetProp, dbc_AfterDBSetProp, dbc_BeforeModifyTable, and dbc_AfterModifyTable to check for the appropriate changes.
