Re: Problem inserting a row containing GUIDs

Thanks to everyone for replying to my question.  I recently installed the
TreeList control from DevExpress and the only time that I have the problem
is when I try to update the database using values that are modified by the
TreeList control.  If I submit the updates without using the control, the
update succeeds as expected.  I am currently working with DevExpress to find
a solution since it looks like it's their software that is causing the
problem.

Has anyone else had a problem making inserts or updates to a database while
using a DevExpress TreeList control that uses a string value in the
ParentField and KeyField properties?

Thanks again for your help,

What's the exact insert statement?  A simple but complete test case
might reveal the problem.  That is, all SQL statements that somebody
could execute in an empty database to create a table and perform an
insert that fails as you describe.

What's your code look like?  Have you tried the same insert using
psql or some other client?
