There is no automatic function for updating the many file when the related one-field changes. You must write a script more-or-less as follows: (Place it in the [Company]CompanyName field and set the Only if Modified flag) relate many([Company]CompanyName) $new:=[Company]CompanyName apply to selection([People];[People]Company := $new) that's it. alex ---- Edmund A.
