Hello:

This is probably stupid, but I have to ask.

Usually I set the Closable property of my forms to .F. so I don't allow my users to click in the close button of the form and insted I place a Save and a Cancel button to process whatever the user wants to do , but then I thought, Why not make the form more friendly? I just have to execute a few validations if the user clicks on the close button and that's it, but here's what I noticed.

My form uses table buffering, so nothing is supposed to be updated in the table unless I issue TableUpdate() right?, but if I click the close button in the form (The tiny X in the upper right corner), all changes take place even if I don't issue TableUpdate().

Is this a normal behavior, or is there a property that I can set to change this?

This is really not that important but I would like to know. I want my form to function like when you are using the Form designer for example, If you change anything and click on the close button, a Dialog asks if you want to Save the Changes you made, but if you didn't, nothing happens and the Form designer closes.

Just so that you know I am issuing:

("2" $ GETFLDSTATE(-1, cMyTable) OR "4" $ GETFLDSTATE(-1, cMyTable))

to find out if the record changed, but if this condition returns .F. the data is saved to my buffered table anyways.

TIA

Mao.
