Hello out there,

I am in need of advice.  Am developing a data entry form with a
multi-page Notebook class on it.  My trouble is that I am using two
tables, one for clients, one to list their children, both with a
common indexed field REG_NO.
The first page uses the Master table (CLIENTS.DBF), the second uses
CHILDREN.DBF.  I have created a new Data Module which includes both
tables and have set up the Master-Detail process in that module, which
is then being used on my form.  Page 2 of the Notebook on the form
uses data from the associated CHILDREN.DBF table.
It works OK in that if I select an appropriate client on page 1, the
relevant children field info appears on page 2, and vice-versa.
My problem is that the page 2 data is truncated across the fields, eg:
instead of 4 fields being:

REG_NO:       FirstName:           Surname              Age
            2         SCOTT                BEENEST           16 

it is showing up like this:

REG_NO:       FirstName:           Surname              Age
            2                 BEENEST           16 

Can anyone please help?
My regards,
Russell Coghlan
