Hi Don,

The reason for that is that the Inventory panel is itself the
target of a data link coming from a third panel, 'Merchandise
Sold'. Values of several fields, among them 'Cost of most recent
purchase', are transferred to the third panel through this link.

It seemed to me that a real field would be better here, because
it could be included in the index of the data link, and in the
link list, in order to have its value transferred to the third
panel.

Perhaps this can also be achieved by a formula, but I am not
sure.

Good luck with your data recovery!

Marcos
