I implemented the code from Allen Browne's website for auditing changes and
everything works fine except for one problem. The only audTypes that are
showing up in the audit table, audErrorReportTable, are Edit To, and Edit
From. The users don't have the capability to delete, so that audType will
never show up anyway, but all new records are showing up as EditTo instead of
Insert. I have a few questions about what might be causing this.
1.) Would having a form autofill fields from a previous record dirty the
new record and cause the new record to have an audType of EditTo?
I am guessing that it wouldn't because I tried it without the form
autofilling, but I still had the same problem. I am not a programmer, so I
just want to be sure and consider all possibilities.
2.) Would this problem be caused by default values?
The really odd thing is that I have tried removing all default values from
the form and the table, and also without the form autofilling values, but
after I do that, the audit trail stops capturing records at all. I have
posted the code from the audit trail below, as implemented per Allen Brown's
instructions, and also the code needed for the form.
