Hi, I have a form that allows for data entry only. I'm a little concerned that some of the db users won't realise that if they enter information incorrectly, or navigate away from the form, that the information will be saved, and they can't then alter it.

What I'd like to do, is have the record never save unless and until the user clicks the 'save' button. Is that possible? How would I do that? Is there a better way around the problem?

Thanks.

The most powerful way to do this is with a transacted bound form.

I posted a sample of how to do it in post 9 on this thread.
