Forms in preview mode will not edit data.

Open two session of rbase. Design and save in on and run from the explorer 
or r> in the other

Thanks Bill, but that didn't work either.  I unloaded two forms running 7.6 
on the 7.6 copy of the database and imported them into the 9.1 copy (running 
9.1).
They are visible in Form Preview but are not editable.
I can run them in Enter and Edit mode from Form Designer.

Doug,

I think I had that problem once. I think it was cured accidentally when I 
was trying to prepare a sample for RBTI to go with a bug report.

I connected back to the 7.6 db, and unloaded the forms again.

Then I loaded the forms into 9.1, and suddenly they were editable.
