How Do I Detect a New Record from the Navigation Buttons
Thanks, I did it your way... (ok, so I'm Frank's antithesis today:^) I could
have wasted a lot of time trying to do it my way.
But still!! -- there has to be some way to see if the Navigational button
"add new" was pushed. Also, I've learned a good lesson about going to other
records in the OnCurrent event :^((
Anyway, I like my new homemade Nav buttons better than the built-in ones.
Your suggestion is much appreciated!
Thanks for your help--
