>i have a table with many fields. i need to be able to access the same record on more than one form and be able to edit that data. I am using text buttons class to control file updates, edits etc. i simply want to access the same data on a second form without opening and closing the table to do so. i have some strategies, but they seem to be way more complicated than they they should be(tons of overhead). there must be a simple solution. open to suggestions!

Frank,
Pageframe might be an option to do it with only one form.
For separate forms you could have navigation buttons on only one and use default datasession.
Or default datasession + navigation buttons on all but setting each (edit starts on one so all navbuttons on all forms should be in editmode and when it's saved, reverted from any of the forms all form navbuttons should also change state). This would be rather complex and having one navbutton as a toolbar would be nice.
Or you might use private datasession + navigation buttons on all forms. But this approach would start edits on each independently as if they were on different computers.
