[ic] DBI tables must be updated natively.

[interchange-users@interchange.redhat.com (Balster)]

Dear Racke,
Thank you for the suggestion, but I forgot to say in my original message
that my ISP
automatically restarts Interchange each hour and I had waited until after
the
auto-restart to test out my INSERT statement.  While this is my first time
using
Interchange, About 2-3 years ago I wrote 3 web sites using Minivend versions
3.23
and 4.04 so it just came automatic to restart the server after making
configuration
changes.

Presumably you need to reconfig/restart Interchange so Interchange can
pick up the database changes.
