You should SET DELETED ON in the Load() Event of every form.

This is most conveniently declared in your base classes (any change, correction, amplification you do there propagates to every form).

The data environment opens all the tables before I can "set deleted on". It doesn't even mark the records deleted that have been deleted in the underlying tables.
