When I substitute requery for refresh, it does save the records however, it also returns to the first record in the table and I would like it to stay on the same record so I think I need to add some code to make it requery and then filter for the record I was on. Do you happen to have an example of how to do that?

I've tried disecting it taking out one control after another. I've tried rebuilding the query it is based on. Here's an interesting tidbit, twice now I have stripped down the database to just the necessary tables, forms, and querys, so I can upload a sample and when I do, the problem goes away. Could that mean corruption somewhere else? I have noticed that as long as I stay on the first record I can change things and the save works every time. It is only after I move to another record that it stops saving changes. What happens when I move to a different record?
