   Re: Removing field filter(s)

   If you open a form, set a filter, change to design mode, and then save the   
   form, you will save the filter in the design.   
      
   If you deliver your forms so the users cannot turn into design mode, they   
   cannot save their filters... solves one problem.   
      
   Depending on how complex your form is (the number of tables) you can easily   
   get rid of filters by simply setting a blank filter on each table.
