hihi Henner, i would like to try your suggestion, but how can i use subforms for child tables for an insert page? i tried 'wrapping' the html widgets from child tables within a subform but it would not generate the html because i believe it had no parent id. the parent id is one of the textfields to be entered by the user, it's not generated by database. this is like a catch-22 situation. the child fields need a parent id, but the parent id is not available since it will be entered by the user when inserting this new record. is there a way to get around this? what i ended up doing is basically just to generate all these child fields without any subforms at all. to DBForms, these fields do not belong to any table.. like independent fields. :p tia, woodchuck ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.
