Hello,
For my application, the values in a form should not
be required or updated automatically whenever a change in
data occurs.

I want to control the requering/updating of values in my
form using a command button. Any suggestion to this
direction is very appreciated!

Thanks and regards,
Swaminathan Narayanan.

PS: I have restated my previous mail in a different to
make my problem more understandable!!

It's still confusing.

Forms do not contain values. They are not storage repositories for
data.

A Form is JUST A WINDOW, which displays the data which is stored in a
Table, often using a Query as an intermediary.

As such, your question seems to be running counter to the way in which
Access is designed to work!

What is the Recordsource property of your form? What do you want to
happen if the value in the Table in that recordsource changes: do you
want the form to display the data which that table contained prior to
the change, or the data which that table contained last month, or
what?
