>>Hi everybody,

>>We have a form with a pageframe with 9 pages. One of the pages called pageAction, that has a cntAction on it. There is a button called Name Search in this container.

>>Here is a code snippet from that button:

>>*** Update status code
>>
>> thisform.cntMainInfo.cboStatusCodes.displayvalue = m.lcNewStatusCode
>> thisform.lStatusCodeChanged = .T.
>> thisform.oBizObj.lCascadeMessages = .F.
>>
>> if m.llRetVal and thisform.oBizObj.save() = FILE_OK

>>E.g. we set displayvalue of the combobox that belongs to the container on the form itself (this container is located bellow the pageframe) and then save the data. I also would like to mention that the lcNewStatusCode is a system status code that is displayed in the combobox as disabled item.

Yes, it does tableupdate.
>(we can answer Yes or No, it would make no difference). Do you know why GetNextModified() function reports a change here while new status code is already saved?

It reports the combo's field as modified. However, even if I answer NO on the question to Save, the change is already saved. In other words, this question should not appear, since the data are indeed saved. I have the same behavior in another simpler form. I interactively change the combobox value, then press the Cancel button that does tablerevert() and then again the question is asked: do you want to save? There is nothing to save.

I may play with different value instead of this. If I remove combo's displayvalue, there would be nothing to save.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
