We created a custom form with dexterity and it has one scrolling window. We basically enter a couple of fields in the main form and execute a script to fill the scrolling window. The scrolling window fills properly. When we change a date field in the scrolling window record, and hit tab after choosing the date, The cursor returns to the record below the one we made the change to and both records have the changed value. Moving the mouse then also seems to blank out any fields the mouse goes over. I made sure the scrolling window was editable, but I can't seem to find anything that would cause this behavior. Any ideas?

The issue here was something corrupt in the underlying table. I exported the data dropped and recreated the table. I re-inserted the data. After doing all that, I tried the form again and the scrolling window performed as expected.
Yes. The line change script has the save table command. The problem happens as soon as I select a date in this date field. I click on the field on one line to get the calendar pop up, select the date hit enter and the change happens to two lines. The one I am on and the one right after. Then I tab and all tabs are on the second line. I move the mouse to get back to the first line and the rendered data on the screen disappears wherever the mouse hovers. I exit the window and come back in retrieving the same data I had before and the date on those two records have the date changed, so the save worked, but why more than one record got updated and why the cursor skipped to the second line or the mouse actions occurred, I don't know.
I assume your Line CHG script is saving the data to the table linked to the scrolling window? Making a scrolling window editable does not automatically save the record to the linked table.
