Problems with Superbase4 forms

I have created a form that uses multiple files to do an order entry
system.  The primary file has a 1 to many relationship and there are
2 other 1 to 1 relationships linked in for lookup and data validation
purposes.

This form is under DML control.  The program is behaving erratically.
Sometimes when I add a new order, the items that are related to it
get lost in the shuffle and get linked to a different record.  There
are times when it performs flawlessly.

The development system and target system are different.  Several of
the problems I cannot duplicate on the development system and are
erratic on the target system and there are several variables involved.

Development System              Target System
386-25                          386SX
8MB RAM                         1MB RAM
150MB HD                        40MB HD
DOS 3.3                         DOS 4.01 (Northgate)
MS Windows 3.0                  Zenith version of Windows 3.0
No perm. swap file              No perm. swap file

Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.
