I filed one earlier. Unfortunately, the workaround involves going
through 140+ forms and it breaks the next time someone adds a field. I
am going to find the cause in the vcl code and see if I can fix it in
the inherited dbedit. What amazes me is that the users had not
discovered it earlier. In this case it causes repeated disk writes that
are expensive in time :-)

I suggest you file a QC report.

Ok, found the full symptom.
Its definitely in D7 and D2007 and its a basic functionality failure.
Once the modified is set due to user edit, it is not reset even when
posted. Its not reset when scrolled either. Unless the new value is
different to the old one. So you keep scrolling and modified remains
set until it hits a record where the value of the field is different
than before. Similarly when you go into insert mode, some of the edits
get their modified set, others do not.
In the app this paritcular field normally has the same value, hence it
showed up for it.
Bottom line - CRUD

It's probably because Modified is a property of TCustomEdit and not
related to any data-awareness.
From the Help: Use Modified to determine whether the user changed the
Text <StdCtrls_TCustomEdit_Text.html> property of the edit control.
Modified is only reset to *False* when you assign a value to the Text
<StdCtrls_TCustomEdit_Text.html> property. In particular, it is not
reset when the control receives focus.

In both D7 and D2007, just on dbedit on one form has a sticky
modified property. Once the value is changed, the modified goes to
true and stays there. Even after post, cancel or scroll, until the
form is killed. Obviously, there is nothing in any event that
modifies the value.... only the user does.
Has anyone come across this or can postulate a reason for it ?
