[Quoted] I have a simple problem but haven't been able to solve it for 2 hours. How [Quoted] do I do the following with a WHEN-REMOVE-RECORD trigger or a KEY-DELREC or [Quoted] ON-DELETE trigger, etc. (I am pretty sure that it should be the WHEN-REMOVE-RECORD trigger):

	When the user presses Shft-F6 to delete a record
		1.	I pup up a Yes/No alert box.
		2.	If the user selects YES then
				I want to delete the record
			Else
				I leave the record intact.
			End if

The first part (1) works as expected but I can't get part 2 to work properly. It seems that the record gets deleted anyway (whether YES is selected or NO)... By the way, I do return the value of the alert box selection into a variable and use it in my IF statement so that is probably not the problem.
