>>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.

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animated contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsel or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."
~Samuel Adams
