Try this. It should save the new record, open search mode, then close out of add mode. That way when you go back to add mode, there won't be any other forms there -- just a new, blank, form ready for some new data.

	vNav = @SelectTreeItem("Add Data Menu!Navigation!Save Record")
	vNav = @selectTreeItem("Add Data Menu!Navigation!Switch To Search Mode (F7)")
	@Exit
 

Because in that code, we just opened the form in a 2nd tab as Search mode, and @Exit is only closing the Add mode instance of the form. Think of it as closing the tab you have open (the gray ones at the bottom of the Sesame window). Since, you can have the same form open in more than one gray tab, you can use @Exit to close just one of them.

If that isn't clear, I can see why you may be getting confused by the concept. Because, when you are in Search mode and click on the "Add New Records" button in the command area, it actually closes Search mode and opens Add mode. If you were to be using the command tree rather than the command buttons (which is the default) in the command area (you set that in the sesame.ini file or with a command line switch), you would be able to have the same form open in both Add and Search (or Update) modes at the same time. You can also open multiple modes of the same form by using @SelectTreeItem in a custom main menu setup, which is how I build all of my applications.

So, @Exit will only close one of these modes (tabs). Does that make sense?

Because it is being executed in the Add mode tab, so it acts on the tab which is running it.
