Hi there,
I'm developing an application that uses a PostGresql DB. In the DB there are (among others) one table that contains details of manufacturing machines and another that contains producible items. I have just introduced a third table, that contains what items a machine can produce. Below a snippet from my .sch file regarding those tables.

TABLE_ (MACHINES)
  STRING (IDMACHINE, 5) PRIMARY_KEY
  STRING_ (NAME, 20)
END_TABLE

TABLE_ (ITEMS)
  STRING (IDITEM, 2) PRIMARY_KEY
  STRING_ (DESCRIPTION, 20)
END_TABLE

TABLE_ (ITEMS_ALLOWED)
  SERIAL (ID) PRIMARY_KEY
  STRING (IDMACHINE, 5) REFERENCES(MACHINES.IDMACHINE)
  STRING (IDITEM, 2) REFERENCES(ITEMS.IDITEM)
END_TABLE


I show the third table (the one with the items each machine can produce) in a SqlArray. To help user to better understand the data, I show also the name of the machine and the description of the item. To show them in a SqlArray, I defined two converters. Below, the code for the first one, the second one works in the same way.

struct ConvMachine : Convert
{
        Value Format(const Value &q) const
        {
			Sql sql;
			sql * Select(NAME).From(MACHINES).Where(IDMACHINE == q);
			String name;
			if(sql.Fetch())
				name = sql[NAME];
			else
				descrizione = "";
			return q.IsNull() ? Null : name;
        }
};


The SqlArray that manages the tables is defined as below.

EditString item, machine;

...

tbl.SetTable(ITEMS_ALLOWED, ID);
tbl.SetOrderBy(IDMACHINE, IDITEM);
tbl.AddColumn(IDMACHINE, t_("ID"),15).Edit(machine);
tbl.AddColumn(IDMACHINE, t_("Machine"), 40).SetConvert(Single<ConvMachine>());
tbl.AddColumn(IDITEM, t_("ID"),10).Edit(item);
tbl.AddColumn(IDITEM, t_("Item"), 100).SetConvert(Single<ConvItem>());
tbl.AppendingAuto().Removing().AppendLine();
tbl.Query();


The data are showed correctly, the problem is when I try to add a new record.

The sql code produced is:

insert into ITEMS_ALLOWED(IDMACHINE, IDMACHINE, IDITEM, IDITEM) values (NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL)


That triggers the following error:

ERROR ERROR:  column "idmachine" specified more than once


I think that is a really common situation, how can I fix this?

Regards,
gio

Very silly question... I've got an answer for myself... just using AddColumnAt.
