Hello all,

Having a slight problem when saving a record in one of my Access 97 databases. Basically what happens when my record is updated is that the database jumps to the first record in the file. I assume that this is because of the database being re-organised to include the new record. Can anyone suggest a way around this?? I need the record to update- but not fly away off to another record because i need to perform an operation on the data after its been saved..
I've tried moving the recordset forward and then back - but that hasnt worked for some reason..

Thanks in advance and i hope that my explanation isnt confusing...!!

How are you updating the Access database? Are you using a VB application? Also, are you displaying the record in a table after updating it? And what kind of operation do you have to follow up? Maybe I can give you an alternative way to solve it.

Check the properties of cursor type in the returning recordset

0 - Forward only
1 - Keyset
2 - Dynamic
3 - Static
