Hi,

I have a string field linked to a DBradiogroup component. When the user
changes a value, I need my software to perform some checks and stop the user
from making the change under certain conditions.

In the past I have done this by using an ABORT statement in the datafields
ONCHANGE event.

However, the problem that I have with visual components is that when the
ABORT statement is executed - while the dataset doesn't keep the change, the
visual component appears to.

I was wondering if there is another way to abort the change (or possibly
just change the value back to the previous one?) in a more suitable manner?

Thanks & Regards

Adam.

What about issuing a Refresh?

The only way to do so is to save and then restore the value by writing event
handlers to trap the enter/exit cycle of the control, if you wish to keep
the dataset in edit mode and cannot refresh the dataset.
