[DUG] Dbase File Data Update

[Marshland Engineering]

I am trying to increase a value in a dbaseIII file. When I press the Inc button, the referenced dbEdit field increases with each click. 

However on exiting the program, the tblData['Jobno']  does not reflect the new value. 


>From data module.

begin
   tblData.open;
end;
------------------------------------

procedure TForm1.bIncClick(Sender: TObject);

var iCurrJobno:integer; 

begin
    iCurrJobno:=dm.tblData['Jobno'];
    iCurrJobno:= iCurrJobno+1;
    dm.tblData.edit;
    dm.tblData['Jobno'] := iCurrJobno;
end;


There are probably other ways of doing this, but I would like to know why this does not work. 

Thanks Wallace
