I don't know how easy it would be to program, but I'd like to see an undo capability throughout Legacy for just about any action. This is something that has become pretty standard in Windows applications and I often miss just being able to click on undo when using Legacy.

The tabs function more like Access than the rest of Legacy does. When you're working in Access, when you make a change in a field, it's there to stay if you miss clicking on the "undo" button (which isn't too visible) Have I mentioned regular backups before? <g> I've been known to backup periodically while working in the file if I'm doing a lot of edits or additions. I'll pass a suggestion on to the programmers for "undo" in the tabs.
