Database Changes Detected Dialog Box

See Also      Tasks

Appears if you attempt to save a database diagram or selected tables but some of the database objects that will be affected by the save action are out of date with the database. Accepting the changes shown in this dialog box updates the database to match your diagram and overwrites other users' changes.

Options

Yes

Updates the database with all the changes shown in the list.

No

Cancels the save action.

Save Text File

Saves the list of database changes in a text file in the project directory and displays a message box with the fully qualified file name of the text file. This file provides a record of the changes you made.

Note   Although you cannot undo changes made to a table or database diagram, the changes are not saved to the database until you save the table or diagram. You can discard any unsaved changes by closing all open diagrams without saving them.
