>Thanks Nick,
>I may try that workaround. I've noticed from lurking (and spending way too much time trying to make it work in a project) that grids make a pretty display, but cause development and production problems when you try to add, change and delete records in a child table. I would love to see a working example that doesn't use a third party product written in another language.

I usually use the parameterized view with table buffering for the child grid and don't see any big problems with that.
What do you mean exactly under "file maintenance"?
