Unable to save changes to form

Hello,

I make changes to a form field, specifically changing the locked property to
yes and then close the form. I am prompted ot save to which I choose yes. The
form doesn't close. If I try to close it again, I get the same prompt. Can't
close the form unless I choose no to the save. Changes do not save after form
is closed. The DB has no security applied. Anyone know what I could be doing
wrong? I tried opening it exclusively but I have the same problem.

Are you sure the file isn't being opened as read only? Do you have
read/write/delete rights on the folder where the database is located?

Are you sure it isn't a replicate copy and not the design master (I don't
suggest you should do that, just that if it was it would also not be able to
save changes).

Interesting you should ask if it's a copy. It is. I copied the entire
database, gave it a new name and made some modifications. Everything else has
worked fine. It is just changes to this form that won't save.

Just for grins I tried making the same change to the form in the original
database and it saves just fine.
