Thanks for the info, calling the refresh on the page form the activate solved the problem.

I'm still playing with the multi-line grid thing. I'm thinking about using the memo window property for editing and two 40 char text boxes in a container for display. The display values set with a substring of 1-40 on one and 41-80 on the other. I'll let you know when I figure this one out.

I can't go to 5.0 because my apps have to run in win3.11 and win95.


>You don't say if you're using pageframes...if so, then you can call each page's refresh from the Activate event. Otherwise, would you post some more detail? For example, how large are the tables? How many set relations are you using? Could you use SET KEY instead? I've been switching to this technique, and it's got some benefits over SET RELA.

When I move the record pointer in the main table all the others act the way they should, and if I check with by using recno(),ect. they are all at the right record. What wrong is my form does not want to refresh

>Yes, bummer. Could you upgrade to 5.0? Otherwise, I wonder if you could fake it out by creating your own container class with an edit box and then dropping that in the grid? That's a wild idea, so I can't say whether it's even worth your time to investigate. If you do, though, let me know < g >.
