I have a table that contains 33 fields, and I was trying to use the Tabular Form. when I click on the Apply Change, Error msg such as
"Current version of data in database has changed since user initiated update process. current row .... " appeared.
The Delete action has no issue.
Now, I tried on a smaller table that contains 5 fields, it ran smoothly.
Now both tables do not have Primary or and constrait at this point.
I am just using the wizard to create the form.
Is this a BUG??
Any advise how to do a workaround??
Maybe this tabular form (4.2 and 5.0) bug is your case.

I have a procedure in which I get values from different tables and calculate a certain decimal number. After that i try to post it on a form text-field which is a database item (update and insert allowed on the settings of block and item). everything works fine but the result wont show on the item and won't save in the database field. I get the error
"you cannot update this record".
Can someone help? i have been working on it for two days now and can't find anything.
Did you check if your user has update access on the table?
Check also if there are database triggers on the table that prevents you from updating the record.
With a few solutions Ive worked with I've created temp table's or history tables. Normally I script it to take a handful of fields needed from a main table and copy it over to the other table by
Setting a variable then setting field to the variable for each field in the new table / new record.
I have a situation now, where Im building a history table that needs to copy the current record as is. A snapshot where all fields from that instance of the record are copied to the history table.
Rather then setting a variable then set field to the variable, Id like to get some input on a quicker way to get this done where I can do this on a record level and not type out field by field to get it done. Also if fields are added to both tables then I have to make sure my script gets updated.
Ill keep hunting around.. appreciate any help.

Do you have a sample of copying a record from 1 table to another
including all fields and setting some fields?
As I suggested in comments, use the Import Records[] script step, and select the same file as the source. If you choose Arrange by: [ matching names ] in the Import Field Mapping dialog, it will automatically map all source fields to their similarly named counterparts.
Note that you must establish a found set in the source table before importing.
For "setting some fields", you can define auto-enter options and activate them during the import, or run Replace Field Contents[] immediately after the import.
I have question about Lotus Note. I have form: http://i.stack.imgur.com/YWii6.jpg
In this form I need create bottom. With this buttom user can add new row with input field in this row to existing table. I find that kind of lotusscript from:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSVRGU_9.0.1/com.ibm.designer.domino.main.doc/H_EXAMPLES_ADDROW_METHOD_RTTABLE.html
But when I this script copied to this form, I get error "Object variable no set"
Then I tried this solotion:
LotusNotes 8.5 - Adding a row to a table with a button
And I again get the same error.
Can anybody tell me please, how I can create new row and input field in this row, when I pressed buttom "Add row"?
You can't make a table with a dynamic amount of rows in a Lotus Notes Form. There are two common ways to solve this:
Use child-documents; one document for each row; and show these documents using an embedded view. This is the most elegant imho.
Create a large, fixed-elements table, and hide the rows that are not needed (for instance, by checking the presence of an input in the preceding row. This is OK for small amounts of row, but performance starts getting bad if you have too many rows.
It seems you are a bit confused as to the difference between a form (your picture) and a document (the code you link). Also, you definitely need to understand the meaning of "Object variable not set", which is the most common error when you use Lotusscript.
Anyhow, where to go from here depends on how you plan using the data once it is input. Will it be edited ? Will each row need to be handled as a separate record ?
So I have a form in Access.![acessform1][1]
Here are form properties
I got this database and have been making adjustments to the other forms. I gave the database back to the user and they reported an issue that this form is not acting properly, and the add order record function is not working anymore.
There's an Add Order Record button on the right side of the form that would usually add the record if the user manually entered input into some of the boxes. The old form you would have control of the values 1/0 for yes/no. You can enter text into the notes boxes.
This functionality doesn't work anymore, and I can't seem to figure out why. The form is identical to the original and no adjustments have been made except to the table that it pulls data from.
So the symptoms are:
User input is not accepted in text boxes.
The find CP functionality works with the drop down and reflects the records accurately but I cannot update the fields.
Also, the fields CP_Ref and Invoice date don't let me enter data anymore.
Also the Add Order Record was giving me an error that The it could not find the record specified, but I since copied the original form back into place and that error went away.
I think functionality wise this button should save the record after a field is updated and should add a new record.
Seems like all the controls are locked on the page.
Here is the query that pulls the data when I click the button that takes me to the Order form.
SELECT DISTINCTROW CPOrders.Cust, Customer.NAME, CPOrders.CP_Ref, CPOrders.Slsman,
CPOrders.Date_opn, CPOrders.CPSmall, CPOrders.InvIssu, CPOrders.InvNo,
CPOrders.InvDate, CPOrders.DueDate, CPOrders.ETADate, CPOrders.Closed,
CPOrders.Cust, CPOrders.Name, CPOrders.BuyerRef, CPOrders.ToCity,
CPOrders.ToState, CPOrders.ToCtry, CPOrders.ToPort, CPOrders.Supplier,
CPOrders.Origin, CPOrders.Product, CPOrders.GradeType, CPOrders.NoUnits,
CPOrders.Pkg, CPOrders.Qty, CPOrders.TotSale, CPOrders.TotCost,
CPOrders.GrMargin, CPOrders.[Sale$/Unit], CPOrders.[Cost$/Unit],
CPOrders.OceanCost, CPOrders.OceanNotes, CPOrders.BLadingDate,
CPOrders.USAPort, CPOrders.FOBCost, CPOrders.FASExportVal,
CPOrders.InlandFrt, CPOrders.CommodCode, CPOrders.Notes,
CPOrders.ProjCust, CPOrders.ProjValue, CPOrders.ContainerNumber,
CPOrders.Vessel, Customer.TERMS
FROM Customer INNER JOIN CPOrders ON Customer.[CUST_#] = CPOrders.Cust
ORDER BY CPOrders.CP_Ref;
I ended up checking several locations for the answer to this.
What it ended up being was a primary key issue.
Essentially when I got the updated database I put them into new tables, effectively destroying the dependencies, relationships, and established keys.
I reverted back to the old tables and found out the form worked properly.
The issue ultimately was that the primary keys were not defined as needed for the table to be updated.
I have a form and it's record source is a table. I created the form separately and added the control sources to the different fields in the form and also changed it's record source. I imported values from an excel sheet into the table and when I open the form, I do not see the tabe values being displayed in the form. Any idea what I should do to see the table records in the form?
In form design mode, check the form's DataEntry property. It sounds like yours is set to Yes, which hides existing records and only allows new entries. Change it to No and you will see the existing records.
Another possibility is that a filter is active and no records match that filter.
Use a form wizard to generate a working form based on your table. Then once you can see the data being displayed in the form, customise as needed.
