Hi Robert, I think you meant me not Jeremy.
This database - and how this admin user has managed things - goes back to 1993 or so. The user has been able to get into “user mode”, now called “design mode”, reliably up until 4D 2012. Rather than having code for everything minor change this user still prefers a quick and dirty sprint into “design mode”. Dangerous? Yep! explained? Yep! User wants to change? Nope! That’s what I meant. But the only person who is supposed to be able to get into “design mode” is admin. Hopefully that explains my ordeal. Appreciate, John... > Jeremy: > > 'Quick Edits' of what? > > My databases are all compiled. The Designer can do anything, including > exiting the splash screen, and then to user mode.
