[AccessD] Disable undo function from VBA.

Fri Dec 5 01:23:51 CST 2003

Hum

Please note that this "undo saved record" behavior I experiance is in
both A97 and AXP.
And in a FORM.

I'll try the dirty form, but as it wlll save the record I don't believe
this will solve the problem.

Even dooing a me.recordset.edit, fields ("")="jkj";.update does not seem
to help, but I'm not totaly out of that due to lack of time.
I find this pretty heavy stuff....

The undo event neither helps.
Undo event (form) only seems to occur when a field is undood. Not when
clicking "undo saved record".

Not that I ever do this either... :P but... undo is not multi level.

As Charlotte said, you can move to any record, but you can only undo the
last change.

both tables and queries (non snap shot of course)

I never use it myself or let my users near the tables, so I don't have
any answers.  I don't know about multi-level, but you can move to a
different record and the undo will undo the edited one.

WOW.  Constantly amazed, though that would explain it.  I occasionally
edit records directly in tables myself but my users are NEVER allowed in
tables. Thus I just never noticed that.

Does it apply if you have edited the record via a form, or only through
the table?  Through a query?  Through a recordset?  What happens if a
second record was edited?  Multi-level undo?

You'll see it in the edit menu from a table, John, if the full menus are
available and you have edited a record.

Eric,

I'm not sure what you are referring to.  Dirty is a property of a form.
It is set when the record is first modified and cleared when the save
occurs. If you set it false in code, it saves the record.

Of all that I am sure because I use it.

Now what exactly is "Undo saved record"?  I know of no such thing in
Access.

Have you checked this John?:-)

I ask because I played with a table, adding a new record, hop onto
another old/new record and the undo saved record feature still worked.
Isn't dirty true if the record isn't saved yet?

Regards,
Eric Starkenburg

Setting dirty to false saves the record so there would definitely be no
undo available after that!

What happens if you set dirty to false?  Then wouldn't the undo fail
('undo not available at this time' or some such error which you could
trap)?
