[Quoted] Say I have a table

   create table foo (id number, description varchar2(20));

and I create a form based on foo.

I then go in and change the size of the description column to be 30. I will have to change the form as well.

[Quoted] Now, imagine that I have 50 tables and fifty forms and a group of developers that may make changes to the tables without changing the forms. Things are going to get out of sync.

Is there an (semi-) automated way of checking a form against the underlying tables? I'm thinking about generating the XML representation of the form and parsing that...

If anyone knows of such a checker then I'd love to here about it. Thanks,
Kevin. Received on Wed Mar 05 2003 - 16:21:50 CET
