Hello everyone:

I've been doing some testing with the ISTAT function and here is what I have found.  I 
first created a form connected to a table called MainMenu.  I locate a field from the 
MainMenu table on the form and a variable as well.  I set up an Exit.eep that puts the 
value of ISTAT('FORM_DIRTY_FLAG')) into another variable.  

When I click on the exit button it runs the exit.eep and sets the variable eqaual to 
he value of ISTAT.  If I change the actual field associated with the MainMenu table 
the value for ISTAT changes properly.  If I change the value of the variable I've 
place on the form the value of ISTAT does not change.  

It appears that the conclusion is ISTAT works as long as it is an actual column in a 
table that changes.  If you use a form comprised of nothing other than variables it 
does not.  

Can anyone verify this?  Thanks
