Thanks for your reply.

I have only one view in my form. I tried REQUERY("MYVIEW") but got same error message. The grid, command button and dataenvironment are stored in MYFORM.
Do you have any idea?

A error message came out that 'This command is not allowed in local table.'(i forgot the exact message, something like that). How?????
