I don't really understand how set skip works, I only know that that's what I need to get what I want.
Example: I have 3 tables. (1)clients (2)addresses (3)e-mail addresses
(Lot of snow birds that have a different address during winter, and also 2 e-mail addresses, but they are
obviously independant of the physical addresses).

What I want to have in my grid is:

Doe, John               Address 1               e-mail 1
**************** **************************     e-mail 2
****************        Address 2               e-mail 1
**************** **************************     e-mail 2

                    or

Doe, John               Address 1               e-mail 1
****************        Address 2           *****************
****************        Address 1               e-mail 2
****************        Address 2           *****************

depending on which order is set (which the user sets by moving the cursor into the appropriate column).

If I only set skip from table1 to table2 and from table2 to table3
instead of from table1 to table2 & table3 and also from from table2 to table 3 I get:

Doe, John               Address 1               e-mail 1
****************        Address 2               e-mail 1

This is all with relation set from table1 into table2 and from table2 into table3
If I set relations from table1 into table2 & table3 (and set skip into both) I get:

Doe, John               Address 1               e-mail 1
****************        Address 2               e-mail 2
