Javier, Interesting. I will experiment.

James, I do the same thing you do except my approach is much simpler and does the same thing you want to do.. On each tab I have an Enhance DB Navigator associated with the corresponding table on the tab, with only the buttons I need enabled; in your case, the six you have. If the table has no records, the “delete” button on the navigator will be automatically disabled and the “insert” button will be enabled. If you have records in the table, both button will be enabled; same for cancel, save and refresh. Real simple, In other words, the navigator does all the work for you without any extra code, plus you have a consistent look and feel. Give it a try, you will be surprised.

Where to imbed eep commands? I have a form "EdMbrInformation" that contains multiple tabs as part of a Parent/Child table structure. Parent table "MbrRegister" linking key MbrNumber Subordinate tables: MbrCurHomeInfo MbrCurWorkInfo MbrEmailInfo MbrFaceBookInfo MbrLinkedInInfo MbrComment on each Panel Page there are six "bit" buttons Close Cancel Refresh Save Delete Add For any MbrNumber each of the Child Tables may contain 0,1, or many rows. Depending on whether the form mode is Enter/Edit/Browse certian buttons need to be ENABLED or disabled For example If the Child table contains 0 rows Disable the Delete Button Enable the Add Button I have devised the following code. --- SELECT COUNT(*) INTO FvMbrCmtCount FROM MbrCommentInfo WHERE MbrNumber=.FvMbrRegMbrNumber PROPERTY EGBMbrCmt_close ENABLED 'TRUE' PROPERTY EGBMbrCmt_cancel ENABLED 'TRUE' PROPERTY EGBMbrCmt_refresh ENABLED 'TRUE' SWITCH(.RBTI_FORM_MODE) CASE 'ENTER' PROPERTY EGBMbrCmt_save ENABLED 'TRUE' PROPERTY EGBMbrCmt_delete ENABLED 'FALSE' PROPERTY EGBMbrCmt_add ENABLED 'FALSE' BREAK CASE 'EDIT' PROPERTY EGBMbrCmt_save ENABLED 'TRUE' IF FvMbrCmtCount = 0 THEN PROPERTY EGBMbrCmt_delete ENABLED 'FALSE' PROPERTY EGBMbrCmt_add ENABLED 'TRUE' ELSE PROPERTY EGBMbrCmt_delete ENABLED 'TRUE' PROPERTY EGBMbrCmt_add ENABLED 'FALSE' ENDIF BREAK CASE 'BROWSE' PROPERTY EGBMbrCmt_refresh ENABLED 'FALSE' PROPERTY EGBMbrCmt_save ENABLED 'False' PROPERTY EGBMbrCmt_delete ENABLED 'False' PROPERTY EGBMbrCmt_add ENABLED 'FALSE' BREAK DEFAULT BREAK ENDSW RETURN My question is where should I embed the code? * Table: ON ROW ENTRY * Panel: ON TAB CHANGE * Other location(s) Jim Bentley, American Celiac Society 1-504-737-3293 ________________________________
