>I have a form with a 1-to-many relationship. When I add records to the form it will only update the parent table and not the child one. I am using the txtbtn add buttons. And on the grid page I also have a command button to add a record. Why won't it add to the child table. I have looked in the knowledge base but thier answers do not work. Also if I just try to add to the child table it tell me that it is read-only. I am getting really confuxed at this point and am ready tho throw VFP in the trash. Can somebody please help me????

Let's try again. Try to check the properties of the cursor in the data environment. I think there is a read-only property? Also, use the debug and trace windows. Set some variables up in the debug window like DBF(), Alias(), Recno(), EOF(), Used("dbfname"), ...ect. U get the idea. Setup break points in your code using SET STEP ON and SUSPEND. Step through the code line by line in the trace window. Also, I use Wait Window to try to pin point where the problem is. U can't fix it until U know what is broke. htwh.
