Automatic Error Handling and Prototyping
When we have entered the last order line, pressing [[ F8 ]] gets us back to the point where
we can either exit the program or restart it.
Thus with just a small amount of code, we can generate a program that adds data to two
datasets. We can use this program to verify with the user that we are creating the correct
solution and we can also use this program to enter data that can be used to test other
modules within the system.
Perhaps our prototype should have started with a version that could add more than one
order to the database. Even so, the first version is important to emphasize how much can
be accomplished in Transact with a small amount of code.
A prototyping version which will add more than one order follows:
