Parameters

oDBChild
Type: DbServer
The server attached to the child server must be specified as a DBServer object (not as an alias). If oDBChild is omitted, all relations for this server are removed (the recommended way of doing this is the ClearRelations() method).
uRelation
Type: Usual
The relation code block for the server or the name or symbol representing the field from this server; a code block is constructed and macro-compiled
cRelation
Type: String
When the relation is specified as a code block, a string version of the code block can be provided as well; it is returned by the Relation() method.
lSelective
Type: Logic
Should this be a selective relation ?

Return Value

Type: Logic
TRUE if successful; otherwise, FALSE.
Remarks
Sends a NotifyRecordChange message to the child server, if successful.
As always, the child work area should have a controlling index that matches the expression.
