Hello!
I have a very general question for old Access hands.

I am familiar with a form's Recordset and RecordsetClone properties. In
what cases do you choose to use one over the other? Are there
situations where it is not safe to use the form's Recordset object
directly?

I have often used the form's Recordset directly without fear, except in
cases where I want to move around within the recordset without
affecting the visible record on the form. Should I be playing a bit
more cautiously? MS's sample code always seems to use RecordsetClone;
is this a question of programming style, or is there a reason?

(I'm speaking from an Access 2000 and later perspective; I've never
touched older versions.)

Wondering,
R/mi.
