PMFJI,

Have you tried calling GetFldState(-1) to see what GetNextModified thinks has changed? Every time I've thought GetNextModified was returning a false positive it turned out to be a field was defaulted or changed in code somewhere.

HTH,

Bruce

>The way this function works seems very inconsistent, though I know it must be just my lack of understanding regarding its use. I searched and found tons of stuff talking about how it works - seemingly only in a controlled laboratory environment - and just as much stuff talking about how it doesn't work. It appears to have more false-positives than a $2 pregnancy test. Can anyone tell me definitively when GetNextModified should return a value other than zero? The way the code I'm looking at works is by looping through an array of the buffered tables in the DE and detemining if there has been a change by using GetNextModified. Sometimes there are some processes that will run that change nothing, yet the function returns that something was modified. Any clarification would be appreciated.
