Steven,

If you can follow the online help description for two tables it will be
the same idea for three. Lookup "Linking master-detail in local tables"
in the online help index.

Use the Master-Detail linking. MasterSource is not working well. SQL
joins are only suitable for reports and client-server products. They are
generally slow with dBASE tables (especially larger tables) and often
result in read-only sets.

You are probably using SQL joins and getting the read-only affect. Use
master-detail linking instead.

I hope this helps.
