In my database there is a main form for entering information on a family. When users open the form they search for a particular record and then prepare to edit it. I want to have the records "locked" while they search and then have them use a button on the main form to "unlock" it for editing. I would like the form to then lock again. How can I go about this? I am not very familiar with Visual Basic. Thanks for all your help.
