Hi John Did you find a solution to this? /gustav >> I am trying to implement a "selected flag" system for a particular form. I >> create a table local to the FE with two fields: >> SelectedID Long >> Selected Boolean >> I modify the form's query to do an outer join between the pk of the original >> table and SelectedID. >> I add a check box to the form bound to the Selected field. >> Whenever the user clicks the check box a record is created in the new table, >> the SelectedID is set to the PK of the original table and the Selected field >> is set true. All fine so far. Printing works fine - filter on records with >> a join to this table and selected = true. >> The odd behavior comes if I delete the records in the new Selected table. >> If I build a query that displays the original table joined to the Selected >> table, when I delete any records in the Selected table, the fields in the >> query from the Selected table display the words "Deleted" and I can no >> longer enter any data in that field because I get a JET error "record >> deleted by user". I have to requery the query and then I can again create >> new records. >> This is an issue because the FORM's recordset works until I delete a record >> in the selected table, then the checkbox FOR THAT RECORD ceases to work for >> no apparent reason. The reason of course is this problem discussed above.
