Alex - Go to the properties of the DBEdit and switch to the Effects tab. You'll see the "Default Value" field there.

How can I make the value stick? In old versions (DOS) of R:Base this was a setting you could select when defining a field on a form. Now it seems that the only way this could be accomplished would be to create a variable from what is entered in that field. The field would then default to that variable until the form is closed. The problem is at the beginning, the variable hasn't been created, so what happens on the first row? Is there a better way to accomplish this? Alex Sisk DiMark Inc (407) 786-4321
