Possible to programmitically synchronize dictionary table/fields??

edited April 2004 in General
Is it possible to programmatically synchronize the table &/or Fields
for a data Dictionary.

I've looked at the tip that displays the DataDictionary Builder at
run-time but I need a simpler approach for my end-users.

Basically something like
Something.Fields.synchronize

    Hi Jon,

    Unfortunately there is no built in way to syncronize all the fields and
    tables automatically at runtime. As a workaround, take a look at the
    TdaDDFieldPage.SynchronizeItems and TdaDDTablePage.SynchronizeItems methods.
    This is the code ReportBuilder uses in the DataDictionary Builder to
    syncronize the fields and tables and may help get you on the right track.

    Nico,
    Ah well... it was worth a shot.
    I do have some code that I've been using but have more
    faith in the RBuilder code :-)
