Sorry. Accidentally press the send.

By the way, thanks. Exactly what you said, the child table pointer was reset because my navigation class selects my master table on refresh. I will try to see how I can solve the problem.

Just a sidetrack, when I have parent-child-grandchild form with the child and grandchild in grid, the grandchild is not set to table-buffering automatically by VFP. Is this by design? My form is set to optimistic.

Once again, thanks.
