Hi Sami -
Thanks for responding. The form is in 6.5++ 1.866. The
field in question is located in a tier. When TRACE is used the
field eep works and TRACE doesn't reach the button eep. The
field eep contained NEXTROW; PREVROW so that the values changed
in the row by the field eep can be seen as RECALC has no effect.
When NEXTROW; PREVROW were removed from the field eep the
button eeps functioned as they should. Unfortunately the value entered
in the field disappeared when the field was exited and the changes
caused by the field eep to other values in the row are not displayed.
If the field is reentered then those values are displayed.
When the eep without NEXTROW; PREVROW was executed On
Row Exit instead on field exit, the field value no longer
disappeared but the other changes to the row were not displayed.
Leaving the row and coming back displays those changes. Putting
NEXTROW; PREVROW into this eep caused the cursor to run to the
end of the table one row at a time.
Attempts to use the eep and a modified version of it after
the row was saved resulted in crashes to the desktop. I have
decided to instruct the users that if they want to use the
form buttons they will have to be in one of the columns without
an exit eep.
