Altering table

[jda]

Hi Ruslan,

I'm trying to deal with these exceptions fc13 throws when the tables 
don't match the API exactly.

I'm trapping the exception and trying to alter the table (to make a 
field NOT indexedbywords). But it is not altering the database!

Here is the code. What am I doing wrong?

     try
       localFormatDB.open(formatFolderItem)
     catch theError as VException
       if theError.ErrorNumber =  525583 then //propertyName is 
indexedbywords. remove that.
         if localFormatDB <> nil and localFormatDB.isOpen then
           localFormatDB.close
         end if
         vdb = new VDatabase
         vdb.open(formatFolderItem)
         if vdb <> nil then
 
vdb.Table("bibAndDoc").StringField("propertyName").indexByWords = 
false
           vdb.Table("bibAndDoc").Field("propertyName").isIndexed = false
           vdb.flush
           vdb.close
           vdb = nil
         end if
         localFormatDB.open(formatFolderItem) -> STILL throws an 
error. And the db is not updated.
       else
         raise theError
       end if
     end try


Thanks,

Jon
