>>This doesn't sound like a multi-table remote view. If it was, then adding a record would always add to both tables, not conditionally on any field. I see and understand that you're doing the with SP, but I STILL DON'T see how this could be accomplished conditionally using a multi-table remote view.

OK, I get it now. You can't do what you're doing with a single RV to two tables, but you can do it with 2 RV's or via your method with SP's. But you certainly made it sound like a single RV could do this, I was just wondering "How?".

Thanks.
