We open the parent record, then click on a table row to open a child entry. When we update the child, it pushes a new value to the parent entry, and we would to see that new value automatically displayed. So, we have the child send an Event, which the parent picks up via an Active Link, which does an F5 keystroke to refresh the display. The trouble is, that even tho the parent is sending the F5, the child is the active window, so its display gets refreshed, not the parent's. I tried having the parent form "Set Focus" to one of its fields, hoping that that would activate the window, but it didn't. Any suggestions?
