Karl, Have you checked to make sure that you don't have the same column name in the two tables with data that does not match ? If you have that situation you will not get any data in the DBGrid I suspect. (You could try changing the column names in one of the tables to see if that makes the data appear.)

With the table filled and calling it from the R> prompt with 'edit using', the form displays but no data appears. Calling it with 'enter using' and data present results in the form not appearing, just an error message. And, calling it with the table empty and with 'enter using' the form appears, but data doesn't appear in the DB Grid when pressing the button which adds rows to the work table - the one linked to the DB Grid.
