I can simplify it down to an essential - if the code moving the record pointer in the parent object run without removing focus from the child grid then the child grid is not refreshed properly. If the child grid does not have the focus at the time, then everything behaves normally.

I have a very simple form and data tables that I can send you based on VFP native classes which demonstrates the effect. I'll only send if you request it.
