ok, every thing seems to be working ok. Now the hard part. in the grid
column 1 = item number column 2 = description column 3 = donated by column 4 = bidder number column 5 = bidder name column 6 = sold for column 7 = donated back && if they buy it, and donate it back, it gets resold again immediately When they enter something in column 4, I want to go out to the bidder table and get the bidder name and save it in column 5 My goal is to take the data in column 1 - 7 to a sold table (append blank, gather memvar) and then mark the record as deleted in the grid (unless it has been donated back) so that the only thing remaining in the grid is the stuff that has not been sold. Then when people want to pay for the stuff they bought, I can simply print out a statement from the sold table for the itemS they bought The area I'm not clear on (yet) is the when portion for column 4 it looks like it will be something along these lines although I haven't gotten it working yet if thisform.grid1.column4 has changed select bidder table get info select item table replace fields with data endif ???
