Access VBA - Using Allowedits

The save code is basically uploading the data to the web then:
docmd.save
me.allowedits = false

"docmd.save" does not save the record, it saves the form design.
Use
 me.dirty = false

ah, nice food, just had my supper!

linder76, to do a save, use dirty like I showed in my first post. Pete has also shown you to use that. Me.dirty is true if changes have been made to the form, Me.Dirty = false forces a save

right, back again

Im wondering if you disable adds and then set DataEntry to No

at what stage do you allow editing? Do you toggle between editing and non editing? DataEntry will cause an issue otherwise

ok, just did a test. Created two buttons to see what affect DataEntry has, none really. It was set to False but still allows editing when AllowEdits switched on

Alternately, you could lock each control manually and individually:

With me
     .MyControlName1.locked = true
     .MyControlName2.locked = true
     .MyControlName3.locked = true
     .MyControlName4.locked = true
End with


Or you could add the specific control name to the function above:

Public Function fnLockControls(stFormName As String, stControlName as string, ynState As Boolean)

Forms(stFormName).Controls(stControlName).Locked = ynState

End Function



And then call it for each control:

fnLockControl(Me.Name, MyControlName, True)

Sorry here is the complete code....I type the wrong save function it shows the real one
I made a button where once it clicked on with turn off allow edits but here in the code the allow edits isnt' working. I hope this helps.

You guys gave me an idea .... I put in the code me.dataentry = false then the me.allowedits=false...and it worked but another error has occurred whihc I need help on but will post that later in a new question.
So Thanks for your hard work...am going to split the points.
