I overlooked the following in the manual: "The MacOS version of
Valentina does not require the file name extension .vdb, but the
Windows version does. If you are going to have a cross-platform database
then it is better to use an extension."
What this means is that under Windows you do not need to include an
extension with "OpenDatabase( gMyDataBase, the moviePath &
"DataBase1.vdb" )", but under Mac you do.
I know that I should have read the manual more closely, but what is the
point of error reporting if you won't even report there is NO CONNECTION
to the specified file in an OpenDatabase() command? How about something
like "File Not Found"?
Oh my God! This is what I just found: If I use ValentinaError() then I
get "-43", but if I use ValentinaErrorString() then I get "No error". I
guess need to start using ValentinaError() instead of
ValentinaErrorString().
