Scatter is pretty old command and basically shouldn't be used for VFP. There are different approaches for Edit form design. My point is that a user enters data (e.g. into textboxes) and then pressing button he/she fires INSERT-SQL which creates new record. What's happened If your user will change his mind? Probably, he will have to delete this record.
