Hi Bob,
My guess is that you are not using the current version of R:Base. This was a
bug that has been fixed. It also would not trigger if you hit a check box or a
radio button and possibly a drop down menu.
Best regards,
Mike Young

Exit.eep that puts the value of ISTAT('FORM_DIRTY_FLAG')) into another
variable.
