John,
I've been on vacation for a week, so your delay was unnoticed while your response was much appreciated. Your instructions are so clear, I'm sure your new employee will up to speed in no time.

I checked the things you suggested. I much appreciate the idea of "Select ViewName" on the click or GotFocus - never occurred to me the buttons would lose thier way.

I have it working now, I think my problem was that I was skimping on TextBox ControlSource. In switching from the Table (CampUnit.dbf) to the Local View (CampUniv), I ended up with ControlSource values like- Facilityno when I changed them to CampUniv.Facilityno things started working again.

Thank you. Your details keep me from straying.

Sylvia

It's not uncommon for the button sets to lose their way to the data you want, as they presume it to be in the selected work area already. In the event just put "Select ViewName", where ViewName is the name for your view. This may correct your problem, as the button set may be looking off into cyberspace and viewing nothing.
