Gary,

I just noticed that I also need to turn selected toolbar items off when a record is being changed (just like when a new record is being added).

I would appreciate any hints on how/where to do this with CodeMine 7. I am having difficulty using isChanged(), isRecordChanged(), etc. and where it goes in this situation. I attempted to check for this in the following commented code with no success.

Thanks,
Mel Cummings

P.S. Your prior suggestion which works great for adding a new record was:

You want to disable the navigational buttons when you have a new record. To give you a simple, untested example :-


form.IsEnabled(cMethod, cWorkarea)


if proper(m.cMethod) + "," $ 'Next,Last,Prior,First,Find,List,Report,'
   * The statemanager is checking a navigational button state.
   * But wait, do we have a New record?
   if thisform.cmDataManager.IsNew('Catcode')
      * Yes we have a new record, so return False which will disable the "state".
      return .F. 
   endif

   * We have a changed record - so how do we turn selected toolbar items
   * off like we do when adding a new record?
   *  

endif

* If we are here, we haven't got a New record in the cursor.
return dodefault(cMethod, cWorkarea)

If we haven't created a new record, you simply pass the parameters to the default code to be treated as it would usually be.
