Tom,

I have tried setting both pessimistic and optimistic
buffering at the properties level of the form but
neither way works. My child information just will not
go into the records, only the parent information goes in.
I will be glad to send my form and files (this is a very
simple application) if you would have time to look at it.
This project is due in a couple of weeks and I am really
stuck.

Thanks.

Helen
