I put a mmButtonSave on my form to save a receiver record. The users will click this button when they modify the record.

Because I am using another button and code to create and save the receiver record only if a line item record was created, I am trying to call the code behind the button to save the new receiver record.

'This doesn't work
'Save the receiver row
Me.btnRecvSave.PerformClick()
'Check for row saved
If Me.btnRecvSave.Result <> mmSaveDataResult.RulesBroken Then
Me.lblMessLineItems2.Text = "Receiver record saved."

The result comes back true, but it didn't actually save the record. No key field was created, and if I try to move off the record the program asks me if I want to save the record. If I say Yes, the row is then actually created and saved in the SQL table.

However, if I use the following code, the row _is_ saved correctly:

'Save the receiver row
Me.oReceivers.SaveDataSet()
'Check for row saved
Dim llSavedOK As Boolean = CBool(mmSaveDataResult.RulesPassed)
If llSavedOK Then
Me.lblMessLineItems2.Text = "Receiver record saved."

This code seems to work fine. So why is the other code not working?

Maybe I'm not calling the code behind the button correctly? Any ideas?

Thanks.
