GregFM Posted June 2, 2001 Posted June 2, 2001 Is there a way to track edits & the user doing the editing keeping memory use to a minimum? I have layouts with multiple fields for all kinds of demographic data for each client. Should a user edit any of these fields, I would like to keep track of these changes. I've thought about a comand to duplicate the record just before the edit and making the new copy the active copy but this saves editted and uneditted info. Also considered: making each field a button that enters that field zas well as copying its data to a global field that corresponds to the selected field, and when the "editing done" button is clicked, copies the the values in the global fields into a file created for tracking edits. I understand that Access has a script if record "dirty" (edited) alows the new and old data to be saved. Any suchthing in FMP5?
