Jan: I'm still not sure I'm following you, but would this work: I'm assuming the "top" part of the form is an editable row of data? So make this table the primary table of your form.
And I'm assuming the "bottom" multi-row part is for display only? If so, then create a view (even if it's a single-table view), including the appropriate "where" clause (like "where batchno = ..."). Then put a DBGrid or a scrolling region for that view on the form. You should make all the fields read-only. After you make the changes to the top, create an "on after save" eep to do a PROPERTY TABLE viewname 'REFRESH' Karen > I am trying to do something very simple: > > Set up a batch-oriented data entry form with a multiple-column 'data > view' (of any kind) > This 'data view' must reflect the change immediately when a row is > added, but must only show rows from the current batch > Lastly, when clicking on a row, I want to be able to edit the data > using my DB Edit fields on the form (DON'T need to edit anything IN the > data view - it's just a reference list) > > I've Tried a Variable Lookup ListView, but the rows disappear when I > click on them. > > I've tried a DB Grid, but I can't determine how to specify a current > batch rather than display data from an entire table. > > Jan - you've been very helpful so far...I hope this rewording makes more > sense.
