Steve:

I'm doing fine, thanks.

It worked now. So tell me if I got this right. In order to be able to do a delte, the form should be buffered, with set delete and set multilock on. further, when doing a delete, a tableupdate() needs to be issued for the record to be deleted permanently(?) from the table.

On the other hand, if I waere to use the table directly and bind the controls to the fields in the table, a tableupdate is still the way to do a delete.

Am I understanding this correctly? Thanks again.
