My intention is to go back and explore changing them to grid column valid events, but I don't want to tackle that right now. Can someone tell us if 7.1 fixed the linking issues on numeric fields into grandchild tables???? I worked around it by using findkey and do while loops on third and subsequent tables, writing data to array and displaying in a listbox. Not editable of course; wouldn't be any use if your trying to use the linked tables in a grid, and besides it's a nasty looking piece of code. I was planning to go back and clean that up too once the inline came out. M-1 issues notwithstanding, here's what I need to know. How can we get editable rowsets for use in a report (or a grid) that allows filtering of data on both the parent and the child tables (7.0 or 7.1)? There _must_ be a way to do this with OODML. I have reports that need to update the tables as they run, and I've dealt with it preliminarily by using a .sql query and then a separate function to go back through the tables and mark the records closed. In addition to having to process the records twice, it just makes me feel insecure. Borland, TeamB, Gurus??? Thanks, Patricia
