I just tested this and Commit Changes does not actually save to the database. All it does is pass the "On Close" field mappings originally specified in the "open window" action back to the parent form.
If it always saved to the DB the action wouldn't be available in Display only forms, etc. However, you DID help me track down another embedded run process PERFORM-ACTION-APPLY that was buried in the code - and THAT was causing the problem. :) It turns out my bypass before did bypass this one extra step, making it appear tied to the EVENT send.

Possibly ....? I'll have to look. Shouldn't that just send values to the parent form though? And not the DB?

I'm using a simple event to send a message from a child window to a parent window. The event is done after a "Save" button is pushed on the child window. When the event is received by the parent window all that happens is a guide is called. In this guide there are 8 active links that do ONLY 3 direct sql calls and a few set fields on the parent window. There are NO push fields at all. For some reason when the event is received by the parent window it saves the current record in the parent window. I can see all of the workflow, etc, firing in logs - but there is NO triggering event logged that shows WHY it saved the record. And I REALLY do not want it to save the record in the parent window. I have double checked all workflow to insure there is no embedded RUN PROCESS PERFORM-ACTION-APPLY and that sort of thing. There is literally no workflow that initiates the record save. No push fields, no run process, no other events, nothing. I confirmed this by turning off the event send from the child window. The parent record does not save. I also added a button on the parent window that calls the same active link guide as the event. In that instance all of the same steps are being taken EXCEPT an event is not sent. It only saves the record when it receives this event. I'm baffled. It makes absolutely no sense to me.
