Well, the button is a non-base table object anyway, so what is the point of placing it on the same block? It is a simple enough matter to put the button in a different block, preferably a non-base table block.

If you want to associate a button with a record, place it on the block. Otherwise, put it on a different block.

Incidentally, under Forms 4.5 and later, you can put it on the same block if you wish.
