The invisible commit

[LaRetta]

Looks can be deceiving ... I have found a slight inconsistency OnObjectExit (file attached)...

Purpose: Go to next record and field text1 after you exit text3 field then commit the record. Place your cursor in text3 and tab (or click) out. The record actually DOES commit (I know this because you can immediately check Records > Revert Record and it is grayed out) but the cursor remains in the field and it LOOKS like it still has possession. Second script - Commit script shows what cursor SHOULD look like when it has been committed. I wanted to point this out because it can deceive people when they assume they still have possession.

Cursor display and possession will be important in understanding script trigger behavior.
