[AccessD] Access 2002 - Another way to lose your work

Reminds me of a question I asked a while back but no one seemed to know.  I
have  sub form in a rather complex app which comes up in the save dialog box
no matter what form I've modified.  So I was wondering why that should come
up in the save dialog every time when I've not made any changes to it.  Idle
curiosity, mostly.

Like you, I, too, always reply save all, and I have developed an unconscious
habit of pressing Alt-F-S a lot - habit from the DOS days, I think.

Hi Max

Count me in. This is one of the most dangerous and stupid dialogues. I hate
it.
You always have to study the text, and I never have the patience, so I don't
touch it and save all. Never lost a thing.

If I wish to save some and not all, I cancel, go back and positively save
the stuff to save and then skip all the remaining.

Me too.  I could never figure out AND remember if it was the one I clicked
on that was saved or the ones that I didn't click on and if I got it wrong,
I lost work.  So for me, same as Robert, I save the lot!  Call me a coward
but there we have it!
Max
