Tony, I'm thinking of having the master form create a temp table which would enable two-way communication knowing the alias.

Probably by using the Ampersand variable, in which you are able to count, like: V_RBTI_FORM_ALIAS_01 V_RBTI_FORM_ALIAS_02 And so on. The only thing you have to think about what will happen if two forms edits the same rows. I don't know.

Has anyone done anything like this? Dennis McGrath Software Developer QMI Security Solutions 1661 Glenlake Ave Itasca IL 60143 630-980-8461 [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>
