I'm trying to setup a form whereby I have one large grid containing, say customer code, and then 2 smaller grids, which are linked to the large grid by customer code, showing seperate information (one line per customer code)

I know I have to set the 2 small grids as children of the large parent grid, but I'm not quite sure what I'm doing. Is there any EZ guide anywhere that explains the difference between LinkMaster, etc?

As a quick "fix", use the builder on the parent child grid to populate the grid.

Use the builder on the child grids to populate the grids, and click on the end tab, 4 Relationship.

Set the relation up between the two tables, save and run the form.

For more details, you will need to consult the help file and MS knowledge base.

Chris :)
