Why cannot enter EditMode?

[Bon La Lay]

I build a ActiveX Control which called MyControl.ocx. It contains one Usercontrol
named IntField which is used to receive integer input. It has a property Value. And
I use menu Tools->Procedure Attributes set the Data Binding of property Value as
"Property is data bound->This property binds to DataField & Updatae immediatly". So
when I use this control I can set the DataSource and DataField of it. Now here comes
the problem:

When I add an ADO Data Control and assign it as the DataSource of my Control (call it
IntField1) at the design time, then excute it. I can get the data from database and
change freely. All the thing runs fine. But if I assign the ADO Data Control as the
DataSource of IntField1 in my code (in the Form_Load Event for example). Only the first
time I change the Value of IntField1 and call ADODC1.Recordset.Update can really update
the database. After that, I cannot update database any more! I add some code in the
IntField_Change() Event to check the ADODC1.Recordset Status (Debug.Print ADODC1.Recordset.EditMode)
found that the first time when I change the value in IntField1, debug window said "1". after
I clicked the Update button then change the value again, debug window always said "0". Means
I cannot enter the EditMode any more.. Why? Is there missed something when I use Data binding?

Please help me.

a guess:
You read the record first time. You change the value. The value of that field is changed but you do not requery. The field you changed is the key (or what you use to filter data), so the adodc is not able to find the "old" record...
Try to force a requery (or a refresh) by code (ie: adodc1.refresh or similar)

Thanks. But if I put a TextBox on the form and assign the DataSource, DataField.
All the setting will follow the former IntField1. You will find, you can change
the TextBox any time, save any time, it will work. But the usercontrl IntField1
will not. So, requery is not must be done.
