Thanks for the confirmation. That is a bummer if it is the case. With the table field enhancements added in recent versions it seemsu it would be a necessary triggering event.
I was able the get what I needed working with a gain focus AL that does a push and a table refresh right after that. That way each click is a new gain focus even if you are clicking a checkbox on the same record in the next column. I wouldn't want to do it with a table field that has tens of thousands of records behind it but in this case it may end up a thousand max and the form is not a high traffic form.
