[AccessD] Weird problem

Glad it worked.  A time stamp field isn't really a time stamp BTW, but activates row versioning in SQL.  JET will use that if it exists to determine if a record has changed or not since it last visited it.  Adding one is always a good idea.  There is no real downside to it and it usually takes care of any record set issues.  

I've made it a habit to always stick one in every table.

Tried to modify the record in the main form and it gives an error "the data has changed" and refuses to allow me to change the data.  I can change it directly in the tables in SQL Server.  I cannot modify the record directly in the (linked) table in the FE.
