You mention the order line. But what are you doing with it? Right now your pseudocode is going to update all order lines in the detail file.

I suspect that you're just wanting to update a single record from the detail line. So chain with the order line and update. Or add an if statement to your loop to update when order line matches.

So again the lack of information is not helping. What do you intend to update on the detail? All records or single record.

You can never provide too much info. Help us to help you.
