Albert, Thanks that did the trick. Sometimes I just forget the simple things and go to the component code.
This form is based on a view that is not editable. Once this variable is checked, the UPDATE is working on the checkbox field of one of the underlying tables. This DB checkbox is on the form. Since this is a scrolling region row that the var checkbox refers, I now want to show the change that just occurred. That way after I scroll through the other rows, if I go back to the changed row, I want the DB checkbox to show the change. What would be the best way to accomplish this?
