Jim: What you're asking for is to be able to put a "where" clause on the slave tables. We have the ability to do a sort using the "arrange" command, but I've always thought a "where" clause would be so cool... But it isn't there.
I have never used an editable view in a form. But you could try creating a single-table, unsorted view based on your slave table with the appropriate wher e clause on it. That view SHOULD be editable... Karen > I have made a DBGRID that is connecting my open orders to my available > inventory. The grid is working but I want to enhance it a little.
