Re: updating windowed subfile

You should be able to do the following (pseudo code)

Load subfilea
display subfilea
readc subfilea
load subfileb
display subfileb
readc subfileb
return those values to subfilea
update subfilea

That should work with no issues....

Re: updating windowed subfile






Thanks Richard I at least now have that working although I have noticed 
that 
any data entered into the subfile A is lost upon the return from subfile 
B, 
with the exception of the data being passed from subfile B back to subfile 

A......is there a way to avoid this?

If you bought it, it was hauled by a truck - somewhere, sometime.
