Kevin,

Thanks for the tip. Changing the AutoSetEnabled property corrected my problem.

I think a reference to the section "Automatically Disabling and Enabling Controls" should be added to paragraph 11 of “Binding The Order Edit Form Controls”. There it states, to prevent editing in a textbox all that is required is to change the control’s ReadOnly property. Nothing is mentioned about the need to also set the AutoSetEnabled property.
