Hum!

I tried via forms, but I couldn't get it right.

Huh? Rekall does it read write just fine.

It shows like this:

    Title                Author
 ------------------     ---------
 Robots and Empire      Asimov ^
 Rendezvous with Rama   Clarke ^

The "Author" column fields are drop down lists from which I can choose an 
author from any author in the authors table.
