Tom,

 

There are two ways, both simple.

 

1)      Create a form with your customer table as the main table, and the
transaction table as a slave table.  The important thing to remember is that
the two tables will link on all common columns.  Put the customer
information in one scrolling region and the transaction information in a
second.  The transaction scrolling region will change to show all
transactions for the customer selected in the first.  See Razzak's examples
in his various RRBYW databases.  Look for the examples of invoices.

2)      Create a view to join the two tables and base the form on the view.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Getting data into a table

 

I have 2 tables: 
    Table1 has customer information like:  phone, name, address
    Table2 keeps track of each time customer has a transaction:
phone,amount,date
I want to generate a form where I can have a list of the last time each
customer paid, with the amount paid.
I know there is a simple answer to this but I'm brain dead right now.
