How do you assure that associated table is currently selected? In this case, the form is based on a dummy table. No changes are ever made to the dummy table. All of the buttons run EEPS that call other forms, each associated with a different table. The greyed out button might occur the first time the "MainForm" with all the buttons is called, or while using the "MainForm". It's not even the button that is being used that becomes grey. Unfortunately, I can't reproduce it on demand, but it happens daily. The only way to fix it, is to go to an R>, and start over.

In R:BASE 6.5++ for Windows, all objects, except text objects, are associated with the currently active table. So, when placing Push Buttons make sure that the associated table is currently selected.
