OK. This one's a poser so far. I'm trying to duplicate this, and I cannot except in the one circumstance where one the table is used exclusively by one of the forms, so bear with me if I am asking obvious questions.

First off - Make both form's DataSessions private. That ought to fix it.

Is the database opened explicitly - by that I mean with OPEN DATABASE SHARE and not implicitly by USEing the table? It sounds like it may be since you say it's opened shared, but I'm just verifying. It doesn't need to be.

When an EXE is run, unless otherwise specified, EXCLUSIVE is set ON.
In each form's Load() (or better yet, your form superclass' Load() event) put the line
SET EXCLUSIVE OFF
