I am getting a "write conflict" error and can't seem to resolve it. At first i would read it, starting with "The record has been changed by another user...", mutter some obscenities and remark "I am the only damn user!" (Yes, i do talk to my computer.) Then i realized it was almost certainly referring to some calculated fields that i store for easy (i've got to say it) access. The issue is in a form that has several child forms. I will make a change of a number then at some point save the form. I even have the child forms run a save on change prior to saving the parent form on exit. After closing, when i open that parent form back up is when i get the error - not when i am saving and shutting it down (close). Even if i make a change, save & close the form, go back to the main menu, save and shut down the db and Access entirely, when i open Access then the db then go to that form, the write conflict warning pops back up. If i choose Save or Drop Changes from the warning, things proceed as they should.

Can i make this thing go away? I'd rather solve the underlying issue, but i am wondering if there is a solution without driving you good folks as nuts as i am becoming-

Many thanks,
