Hi, John

So when you first open, there are no rows showing for your detail DW, but
then everything works okay once you click on a master row?

Hm, I can't think of what it could be that would do that.  The dw_detail's
filter gets set immediately after the dw_master's pfc_retrieve in the
of_retrieve() of the linkage service.  It's all automatic for you when you
call dw_master.of_retrieve(); you don't have to do anything special except
code your master & detail pfc_retrieve's basically do a this.retrieve(). 
Therefore, when you call dw_master.of_retrieve() - it calls
dw_master.inv_linkage.of_retrieve() - which in turn calls
dw_master.pfc_retrieve then sets the dw_detail filter then calls
dw_detail.pfc_retrieve].

Take a look at the PFC Examples window named w_linkagefilter.  See what you
might be doing that is different from that example.  Play with that example
to make it more like yours and see what breaks it.

Try browsing through the Linkage service FAQs at
http://www.pfcguide.com/faq/faq_link.asp

If you get stuck, show us some of your code, where you turn on and set up
the linkage service, and where you call your of_retrieve(), and both DW's
pfc_retrieve's...  Or send me an exported copy of the window/tab, and I can
see if anything looks fishy.

Any one else have any ideas or suggestions?

Have fun,
~Sharon
