I gotta tell ya Tom, I too started off with same idea of using a scroll for informative child data but have dropped that method for a variable list view because the users can sort any of the list view columns and a double click eep to open the detail form. The list view is really slick plus don't have to include the child table as a form table, just a where statement for the list that is .. where ChildTableForiegnKey = .FormPrimaryKeyVariable and you can have as many list as you like.

The data is entered elsewhere and the scroll is simply informational. A button is included to allow the user to go off to the detail if they want. Works great and the users like it. Two questions: 1. Is there a way to use the ORDER BY command for that slave based scroll? 2. Can there be more than one unrelated slave scroll, each using separate ORDER BY commands in the same form? Unrelated slave scrolls without ORDER BY work fine, but getting separate ORDER BYs to work is tapping the edge of my current understanding in R:Base V8.
