Have you tried adding a row to the 2 tables with a unique new id and then
use 'Edit Using'  ?

I think you might need to refresh table 1 on exit so table 2 can see it.

Losing my mind here, I must be missing something simple.   

I have a 2-table form, with 2 tabs.   When I do an "edit using", I'm able to
go to the 2nd table/tab (which is a many-row) and using the navigation bar I
can add a row and it saves just fine.  There is one common column called
BrokNo and it automatically brings it in.

The issue is that I want to do a "enter using" like the form did in DOS.
However, when they're done with the 1st page and click on the 2nd page, I
can see behind the scenes that the internal BrokNo changes to a 0 once I
click into that second page (using trace and watch variables).  I've tried
setting variables all over the place and it still tries to save that 2nd
page with a BrokNo of 0.   Is there something special I need to do?  Hard to
believe I haven't tried this before....   Of course, I generally hate using
"enter using" but thought I'd try it for simplicity.
