Did you try my suggestion? I gave you some code examples to work with. Telling the rowset to not notify controls should help. You can go deeper and turn off updates the form through an API call ... and we can add the code, rather than in the onOpen event handler to the canOpen event handler (which fires before the form opens): function form_canOpen() set procedure to :dUFLP:FormStuf.prg freeze( this.hwnd ) // navigate to the row or this.rowset.first() unfreeze( this.hwnd ) this.rowset.refreshControls() // update controls for current row close procedure :dUFLP:FormStuff.prg return true // must return "true" or form won't open Ken -- *Ken Mayer* Ken's dBASE Page: http://www.goldenstag.net/dbase The dUFLP: http://www.goldenstag.net/dbase/index.htm#duflp dBASE Books: http://www.goldenstag.net/dbase/Books/dBASEBooks.htm dBASE Tutorial: http://www.goldenstag.net/dbase/Tutorial/00_Preface.htm | |
