Hi Jeremiah,

I think what's happening is that the data from the current control on the form is not being updated. This is because hitting a toolbar button never fires the lostfocus of the control, thereby never updating the controlsource. You have to force the lostfocus with _SCREEN.ActiveForm.ActiveControl or do a REPLACE on _SCREEN.ActiveForm.ActiveControl.Control source with Value.

>The problem:
> One of the toolbars has a "Save" button which issues a TABLEUPDATE command from the Click method. When I click the button, the TABLEUPDATE command returns .T., but nothing happens. However, if I put the "Save" button on any form in the formset, everything works great. It only stops working when it's on the toolbar. Furthermore, if I activate the method programatically, for example, typing: formset.toolbar.button.click() from the commandwindow, it also works.
