Thanks Jim, I don't have any problems with forms but there are occasions
where I do need to work in the table view as I need to quickly compare
records while entering data so the form view doesn't work for me all the
time.
This is why I formatted the table view to make it easy to use, thus
leading
to this problem. From what Anders has posted I'm suspecting that the .TV
file
gets cleared during a rebuild for some reason so I'm going to try backing
that up and then restoring it if this happens again.
