Bug #1351

enhancement requests for field name conversion form
Added by Michael Lee over 20 years ago.
Updated almost 20 years ago.
Description
Would like:
-- for duplicate field names (VegBank) to be handled more nicely
-- check if conversion criteria are valid before asking to use them
-- automatch fields that match names
-- add button to skip all fields not matched to a fields
-- confirm that user wants to add data to table if data already exists in that
table.
that's all.
these are better handled in the simple import form.
csv now automatches, need to fix functino:
getTableHdrsToConvert_mdb
to do same with access fields
all field names on the standard load now match automatically. Need to add this
still to simpleImport
now imports unicode files, detecting this automatically and also skips all
fields not matched. Is nicer about duplicates:
What's still left:
(easy)CONFIRM THAT USER WANTS TO ADD DATA TO THE TABLE, if data already exist,
or overwrite.
(hard)CHECK IF "ALREADY USED" conversions are possibly applicable.
(medium)DEAL WITH "DO YOU WANT TO SAVE THIS CONVERSION BETTER-- ADD LATER,
BEFORE CLOSE?"
--DONE-- : CONFIRM THAT USER WANTS TO ADD DATA TO THE TABLE, if data already
exist, or overwrite.
What's still left:
(hard)CHECK IF "ALREADY USED" conversions are possibly applicable.
(medium)DEAL WITH "DO YOU WANT TO SAVE THIS CONVERSION BETTER-- ADD LATER,
BEFORE CLOSE?"
done:
DEAL WITH "DO YOU WANT TO SAVE THIS CONVERSION BETTER-- ADDED LATER,
BEFORE CLOSE."
CHECK IF "ALREADY USED" conversions are possibly applicable. is done, but needs
testing. This bug is on its last limb (#6 of 6 of #8 of 8 if it's a spider)
all of these are added and need testing, but if errors come up, then that would
be a new bug.
