Embedded databound form and locked records

AusMarkB

Scenario is

• Databound Form with multiple pages
  
• One page contains a panel control with a form bound to a different table
  
• When the parent form is closed, the record in the embedded form is remaining locked
  

The only way to close the parent window is via the System Close button so I suspect that is the cause. Essentially, the embedded window doesn't execute any close logic, just the parent window.

If I was to ensure I captured the close of the parent and then called RemoveForm before the parent actually closes, can I expect the unlocking and savewarn type features to kick in?

I'm likely going to do it anyway but if somebody knows that I'd be wasting my time and jumped in front of me to hold me up, I'd be willing to listen. :)

@AusMarkB - You'll want to use the OnParentClosing event, which was created for just this scenario.

Oh, I missed an event.

Thanks @DonBakke for jumping in front of me.
