Subject Re: can I use a CDM the same way as I use a DMD? From Gaetano <gaetanodd@hotmail.com> Date Sat, 26 Sep 2020 16:08:14 +1000 Newsgroups dbase.getting-started It's for a web app, so no forms involved and most likely no reports either (I export the outputs to CSV format for download), but from your inputs, I take it that it is still advisable to use an existing DMD that already inherits from that CDM, even if I only use the database component of it for a particular routine. Thanks for your inputs Ken! Cheers, Gaetano. On 25/09/2020 23:09, Ken Mayer wrote: > It's not the best design, and it sets you up for some bad programming > habits.
