Jim,

Since you are not using temp tables another approach would be to utilize the 
task scheduler on your server to call an RBase command file and update your 
table and then the users are just looking a data that's already there.

Thanks, Jan. It makes sense to use that approach.
I will test that.

Jan,

If the other forms run off of a main form, then as long as the application 
is up, that custom form action would run based on the timer, correct?

Jim,

Do you use a Form as your main menu?
If so, you could try creating a custom form action to do want you want.
Call the form action every 1-2 minutes using the form timer.

WE use RBASE 9.5.
I want to use a table (we will call it table1) to gather work punches from 
the shop.
Then at let’s say every minute I want to update other tables based on this 
gathered info.
This would be instead of doing it each time a row is added to table1.
What would be the most efficient way to do this?

I looked at triggers, but it seems they would be based on each time a row is 
added.
I am not sure if I want to go that route.
