I thought this was working for a while, but appearly I must have over looked or something else allowed it or whatever. This coding was in the GRID's Refresh. As to my best understanding, maybe it wasn't supposed to be in the Refresh, so where should this be at? This is for to check if there is any records in the CHILD while the PARENT is active. This being said, I also have the 'Add' button (which would be the ThisForm.Commandgroup2.Command1) and upon/after the record is saved (in the child table), I would need to enable those two button as well, so this is why I have the code like this... can you help me with this?
