>See Mel's reply to you. His recommendation is spot on. The only other child form that is regularly used is a frmModalDataChild, which as the name implies is a modal form, by default.

Thanks Gary. I'll ask you the same follow up question I asked Mel. Would the arrangement you both suggest support editing in two child forms at the same time? I f so, I presume that would require private data sessions, so the question is: would Codemine be nice enough to replicate the environment of the parent form in the child form's private data sessions?

>Is this "real" Visual Foxpro work you are doing or are you still working with 2.6 conversion projects?

This is for a "real" VFP project, not a migration.

>Have a great Christmas.

Same to you.
