I use this TDBF as a The FieldDefs or the Fields ? FieldDefs. sort work table so its used only by my code and is not seen by the user. I had created a TDBF connected to the usual components to give me a data entry form and this table's FieldDefs persist. Ok, a little more experimenting I figured out that the FieldDefs will stay if I leave the table "active" when I save the form. Is this the way it is or should the FieldDefs persist whether I leave the table open or Are they really stored in the .LFM based on the .Active property value ? I haven't looked but it seems to work. I can create a TDBF with "OpenMode" set to "omAutoCreate" and the table auto-creates itself. So it can't be pulling the fields from an existing table, because it didn't exist in the first place. -Jon -- Jon Foster JF Possibilities, Inc.
