Interestly ... the CLOSE removes the visible rows, but upon OPEN,
even though the value for vstyle has been changed, the original
rows re-appear.
If you leave the form, or do a trace, the value for vstyle is the new value.

Bottom line is that I want to change the rows I am editing in the form from the form,
rather than going out and entering a value then loading the form each time.

PS:  Try saying form from the form 5 times!

Dick,

Try this sequence:

PROPERTY TABLE tablename 'CLOSE'
-- now change the value of vstyle
RECALC VARIABLES
PROPERTY TABLE tablename 'OPEN'

I'm just guessing here ... I know this will work to refresh a scrolling
region that is based on a temp table or view.

Any ideas about why this does not work......

Set VAR vstyle  text  = 'ABC'
Edit using Formname where stylecode = .vstyle  (using a scrolling region)

Then while editing the form...
Using a dbedit not in the scrolling region,
Clear value vstyle
Set new value for vstyle
Issue  'Property Table Tablename 'REFRESH'

Why does the scrolling region not refresh to the values for the new
stylecode?
