Hi
The following article describes how to lock the record.

I tried that (I execute an update query on BeforeEdit event) but it
doesn't seem to work.

Hi all
With a TComboBox Style set at csDropDownList you can do:
DocEntryDestCB.ItemIndex :=
DocEntryDestCB.Items.IndexOf(ImpDestCode);
With the Style set at csDropDown, you can't.
Is this in:
* it doesn't compile
* it crashes
* it returns wrong result
I am interested as I have

Yes you could use pessimistic locking however I wouldn't suggest it.

Gotta agree here - I've only ever used explicit locking once - in a paradox
app, where I had to lock the record or another paradox app would clobber

Yeah. Sorry, wasn't clear about this.
I want to be able to handle an exception if the ImpDestCode is not in the

Interesting thread. Has Interbase got an ODBC driver yet? For many applications,
the lack of one is probably a positive advantage but I need access via the
likes of Arcview, excel etc and no ODBC driver is a distinct problem.
