Update with Pop Up

XMan

I have a busy form with many fields. I can only fit a small memo box. Beside
it I have a button to another pop up form that user can update the memo
field. I can't update just that memo field and getting error message

Couldn't update; currently locked by another session on this machine.

I have two forms open for one record. Is there a way just to update one
field while the whole record in on another form? TIA.

XMan,

take a look to the RecordLock property of the forms, it is probably
set to "Edited record". Set it to "No locking" and see what happens.

Sorry. That didn't work. I think I may have to create a unbounded pop up and
get the updated memo text field and then update it with the main form. The
trick is how to populate the memo field on the main form with data from pop
up. Any help here is much appreciated.
