Help with Template

I have downloaded a template from MS, it's the Issues Template. I am
tailoring it to my own needs, but I can't seem to save changes to certain
objects. In particular, one of the subforms won't let me change a label for a
text box. I think there are others too, but can't think offhand.

When I change something and attempt to close the form, it will ask me if I
want to save the changes, if I click on yes, it returns me to the form as if
I had clicked the cancel button. If I click no, it will close the form with
no changes made. I have tried clicking save before closing the form, but that
also makes no difference.

Does anyone know of a reason why I can save some but not other objects?

If I need to post code, please be specific about what you would want to see.

Thank you for your help, I appreciate all you do here on the forum.

I'm not familiar with that template but the subform in question
probably contains a datasheet view. There isn't a lot you can do with
them. The best way to get that same information displayed where you
have more control is to design a new form for the subform that will
look very like the datasheet view. Display that form in continuous
view. Now you'll have something you can tailor to your liking.

I don't know that that's the problem, but I think I like the idea of making
it a continuous form... I think I will do that, thank you.
