How are you allowing the user to open form B from the table field on
form A?  Do you have drill down enabled?

 

What I might recommend is disabling drill down and creating an Active
link which fires on double click of the table row and that active link
performs an open window action (dialog) to display form B.  The second
action in the active link would be to refresh the table field.  This 2nd
action won't happen until the user closes form B.

 

HTH,

Subject: How to refresh a table field

 

I have a display only form (form A) with a table field that points to
another form (form B). A user can open a record from the table field and
then update that record on form B. After they save the change, form B
closes. I then want the table field on Form A to refresh to show this
change. I know I could write a guide to do this but there would be a lot
of different branches depending on the changes that are made. 

Is there a simple way to do this without a guide? Form A does not open
again or gain focus. I am sure there must be a simple way but my brain
is fried :)

thanks
