I want to prevent the user from editing a record that has been closed. So I want to check the value of a field when they press the Edit button on the maintenance toolbar. If the value in that field matches closed then I want to cancel that edit and notify the user.Wed, 04 Oct 2006 12:41:29 GMTStarkMikehttp://forum.strataframe.net/FindPost3298.aspxIt's on the form, not the toolstrip.&nbsp; MyForm.Edit().Wed, 04 Oct 2006 12:41:29 GMTTrent L. Taylorhttp://forum.strataframe.net/FindPost3297.aspxThanks Ben. I was not able to find the Edit called by the Toolstrip. Could you please tell me how to find it. ThanksWed, 04 Oct 2006 12:40:03 GMTStarkMikehttp://forum.strataframe.net/FindPost3280.aspxThere is not an event hook to allow you to cancel an edit, but the Edit() on a form (the one that is called by the maintenance form toolstrip) is overridable, so you can override it, test your condition and then either bail or call the base Edit().Wed, 04 Oct 2006 09:35:57 GMTStrataFrame Team
