Thanks Kevin, I'll give it a try.

>>Here is the background. I have an building inspection application. Each inspection has from 1 to about 30 components (Roofs, Heating/Cooling systems, Windows etc.) which have a common screen format. I plan to have a common view for this form and filter the view based on the component chosen. In this case I would create the component business object, as a child of the inspection object, on the component page of the inspection form and create the new component form, a child form of the inspection form, using the component object.

If you find that CListObjEditForm is overly helpful <s> you could alternately create a new form that does more specifically what you're looking for.
