Requery Updating Dirty Record

Hi

We have a form that opens another form. The other form runs a stored procedure against the back-end SQL Server then closes, when it closes it requeries the original form.

The SP amends the record open in the main form.

Unforunately during the requery appears to write the dirty data in the main form back to the database (undoing the SP).

How can I do a re-query without writing the data back to the DB?

Thanks

Why are you requerying the the original form?

Hi, Thank you for your post.

Because the SP has updated the data shown in the original form.

Thanks

Well, that's what it's doing! When you requery a form a dirty record is saved. The only thing I can see is that you have to dump the new data before requerying the original form.

Why exactly do you not want the dirty record saved?

A Requery is not necessary. Just a Refresh should update the current records in your form.
