However, it's probably best to physically count the records first and then INSERT a blank row into the table, guaranteeing that EDIT USING will work. These days, however, I almost always base my user interfaces on a variable form that displays records from the table in a Variable Lookup Listview (the most useful control in R:Base) and features menu options (using the form menu, group bar, buttons, or some combination) to allow users to edit or enter items. This eliminates the no records problem, gives users free record sorting, and means that the user doesn't have a lock on the table until they actually want to edit or enter something. -- Larry
