Problems saving records linked to a form

Hello all

I hope I can clearly explain my problem here...

I am working on an Access db that has a table that is linked to a continuous form(actually it is a sub form within a form). Each field in the record set is associated with a txtbox, drop down list or check box.
The sub form has several buttons including a delete and save button. The user can update the fields for each record.
Here is my problem. There are times when the application appears to lose track of which record has been changed in that when the save button or exit button is clicked, it tries to save the record but can not connect the values on the sub form to a record in the record set
I get a A write conflict msg stating
This record is being changed by another source since I started editing it.
At which point the application gets hung up and needs to be shut down.


Any thoughts?
 
Hi jebushatescats,

Did you set the LinkChild/MasterField-property of the subform correctly?
