I haven't tried to do that but my take is it wouldn't be hard to do. If you edit the data in textboxes then you still need to navigate to the next record and save the edits back to the Dataset even if not saved to the SQL back end. There would be a point where the data needs to be persisted to the SQL. Do you do this on closing the form? What happens if the form doesn't get closed properly or something?

If you want to do something like that, I can probably take a look at what I thought would be involved.

The editing would be done in standard textboxes etc. It seems that the basic navigation logic in the Framework prohibits me from navigating without first saving changes etc.
