>>>I had a form with one table in the DE, some text boxes, and some nav buttons. No problem. I added a grid with .Recordsource = myview, and added the view to the DE. Still no problem. Then I added another table to the DE, intending to use it as a combo.Rowsource. Then my nav buttons stopped working. It would jump from the first to the last record, showing maybe one or two records in between. The behavior is the same, whether I use the form wizard buttons or my own nav buttons, which are similar. Tests with the debugger have indicated that the selected ALIAS() is shifting, and that the original alias, when it returns, is at EOF(). But I have no code that selects this third cursor in the DE.

The jumping around seems to already have happened when the button.click executes. I made sure that the correct cursor was the DataEnvironment.InitialSelectedAlias, and, anyhow, if the correct one was selected before, adding a table to the DE shouldn't hurt anything.

I have since added another table to the DE and used it for a SELECT - SQL which is the rowsource of another combo, which is in my grid. I had this happening before, decided it was a corrupted form, and deleted the form. The problem went away for a while, or so it seemed.

Bret,
Are one of the tables in your DE a view?
