How do i protect the cells in my database from being over written when i am creating new records. I have description data that gets copied from record to record. When i select new record i want to protect some data and over write other data. How? [sig][/sig]
 
You can make the fields you want to protect "read only" -- this is an option on the Basics page of the properties dialog box for each field on your view.
