David,

Thanks for your reply. I'm working at coding the CREATE VIEW myself due to KB article Q157254, which states that there is a BUG in the SQL-SELECT when joining a parent to two child tables. The way the view designer builds the SELECT statement will cause the bug to show its ugly teeth. The workaround is to code the CREATE VIEW, whicn I am doing now.
