Nancy,

Firstly, did you select text buttons or picture buttons? The picbtns class has txtbtns class as its parent, so the code will be in the txtbtns class. Look in that class for the cmdAdd button to see what it does (this button Adds or Saves depending on the mode you are in, which is expressed in the properties of the parent, picbtns; these properties can be found in the Other tab in the properties window, ie. addmode, editmode, endfile, topfile, and many others). It can be complicated, but this is where you should be looking. Study it a bit before you begin to change things, and save a copy of the form somewhere for backup in case your experimenting causes undesired results.

>i created a form for personal use in VFP 7 using the form wizard. the form seems to work fine but i do need to edit it. currently i have to click on edit, make the changes and then click on the save button. i would like to have it so that i never need to click on edit/save and all changes are saved automatically. i took a quick look at the vcx code and how to make this change is not readily apparent to me.
