Thats true, however, all other dbedits behave differently - their
modified does get reset when post, cancel or scroll is performed. And
the vcl assigns a value to it on scroll. Looks like I might have to
step through the vcl code to see whats happening. We use the modified
this way all over the place, and it appears to work correctly
elsewhere.. maybe its random. :-)

It's probably because Modified is a property of TCustomEdit and not
related to any data-awareness.
From the Help: Use Modified to determine whether the user changed the
Text <StdCtrls_TCustomEdit_Text.html> property of the edit control.
Modified is only reset to *False* when you assign a value to the Text
<StdCtrls_TCustomEdit_Text.html> property. In particular, it is not
reset when the control receives focus.

In both D7 and D2007, just on dbedit on one form has a sticky
modified property. Once the value is changed, the modified goes to
true and stays there. Even after post, cancel or scroll, until the
form is killed. Obviously, there is nothing in any event that
modifies the value.... only the user does.
Has anyone come across this or can postulate a reason for it ?
