Not to be rude, but this didn't help. I still need to know WHERE this should go. I did the SET STEP ON and followed it, the math and work area is correct, but it is the matter is WHERE this goes...

>WHERE would that go? In the ClickEvents of all of the buttons (to ensure it is working)? I was hoping not having to repeat the coding (copy/paste it all over) or use it as a function? I have a parent table (person) and the child table (auth) is in the grid, with the relationship active.
