Bhavbuti,

Is there an explicit call to cForm.Save() like you have posted? If so it looks out of place.

IF NOT THIS.BeforeSave()
   RETURN
ENDIF

this.Save()

*** save stuff here

THIS.AfterSave()

So the base Save shouldn't be called until it's ok to save. Your form's override of BeforeSave would work like you have it coded.

>iForm.Save() does not have anything but iForm.BeforeSave() has the code you have seen, this is the one I have put in for my usage. But all of this is form code, yes I am validating key things in the MyForm.BeforeSave() but when I return a false, essentially cForm is doing a simple return without messaging. My code in iForm() does the messaging but I presume it will only message cForm problems. Actually I want to message MyForm generically in iForm.
