This also works SQLFORM.smartgrid(..., onvalidation=crud.archive... But, I now discover archive never saves the original record. You can edit the record and it saves the edits, but it never gets the first version of it.
This statement from the Official Book"on updating, it stores a copy of the record (as it was before the update)" is incorrect, at least as far as smartgrid is concerned. I haven't tried it with SQLFORM by itself or with CRUD.
