Have you tried opening the second form by passing a reference object to it
which points to the calling form.
i.e from Form1 issue the following "do Form2 with Thisform"
In the Init of the second form do this:
* Procedure init()
Parameters toCalling_Form
Thisform.AddProperty("oCalling_Form", null)
Thisform.oCalling_Form = toCalling_Form
....
You can now use the Thisform.oCalling_Form object to call any events/procedures
on the first form from the second.
Once you have added all the records you require in the second form you and
issue an Thisform.oCallingform.<<Listbox>>.Requery immediately before the
Thisform.Release which should display the added records on the first form.

Subject: Updating a listbox
I have a form that displays records from a table in a listbox. A "New"
button adds a record to the table and calls a detail form that allows entering
data to the blank record. When the detail form closes I want the listbox on
the original form to display the new record.
Its not working.automatically. A mouse click anywhere on the list box causes
it to resize and display the new record. I looked for a way to programatically
simulate the physical mouse click but so far haven't found one. Here is the
code in the button click event:
GOTO bottom
APPEND blank
thisform.list1.refresh
DO FORM PMdetail
thisform.list1.refresh
thisform.UpdateTot && Update the total and refresh the form
thisform.list1.click
I know there are better approaches but it seems this should work. Any ideas?
TIA - Joe
