HTransactionStart (Function) In french: HTransactionDébut
Not available with this kind of connection
Starts a transaction on the data files (HFSQL or accessed via a Native Connector) and creates the transaction file. What information is saved in the transaction file? Whenever a WLanguage function modifies a data file or an index file during a transaction, the former values of the record and the operation performed are stored in the transaction file.

Remarks Locking records The added, modified or deleted records in a transaction are locked in write mode. Error cases - Nesting transactions: Transactions cannot be nested (i.e. HTransactionStart cannot be called in a transaction). In this case, error 70031 occurs.
Versions 19 and laterA fatal error is displayed in the following cases: - A transaction is started on all the connections while there is at least one connection in transaction.
- A transaction is started on a connection while a transaction was already started on all the connections.
- A transaction is started on all the connections while there is at least one connection whose isolation mode is not "Read Uncommitted".

Handling records during a transaction Transactions and independent HFSQL context When copying a context, if a transaction is in progress on the first context, the new context is not in transaction. You must call HTransactionStart to start a transaction in the new context.
