Hi Donald (or Fred)

Since you're using buffering, you would need Tableupdate() after you make any changes. Check the exact syntax in Help, I would suggest to use the 3rd parameter and then check, if there are any errors.

Do you use any kind of frameworks? We have some generic code in our Save method of the form, but I'm not sure, it's the best, so I'm not postiing it here...
