Hi Steven,

You need to find out the difference in settings for default DS and your form's private DS. Do you have form's class? Check what do you have in its load method.

Alternatively you can have a settings class which you can instantiate in the main program as well as in the form's Load method (or DE BeforeOpenTables method).

This way both your form and your main program (in default DS) would have the same settings.
