>>>However, in the second round, when the I attempt to press "Add" again, the same procedure that worked fine before, fails: Instead of displaying just 3 fields, the grid displays all of the fields of the temporary file in disable colors. It's as if the propgram ignores the same commands it recognized before.

What I meant is are you using Cursors or Views. If not using one of these then I strongly reccommend you do.
