Do this: PROPERTY TABLE TableName POST EDIT USING SecondForm WHERE. . . PROPERTY TABLE TableName REFRESH The call to POST will make certain that the current record is pushed from the form to the table on disk. The EDIT USING runs your second form. The REFRESH reloads all the rows on the first form to show any changes you made on the second form. Aternatively, my preferred approach is to show the data on the first form in a variable lookup list box and then edit the data on a separate form, followed by PROPERTY listBoxControl REFRESHLIST TRUE -- it removes all locking and buffering issues from the equation. -- Larry
