The foundation read will fire every time the value of WONTOP() changes. Of course, the second form (unless it's part of what we'd call in VFP a formset) shouldn't have a read clause at all. You'll have to release it from the other form.

I still can't get this to work. No matter what I do, the general field window disappears behind the main editing window when the main window is activated. I have tried so many different ways, its driving me craazy! :( Does anyone have any more ideas or more explanation?

Thank you,

Sally
