Thanks to both of you for such on-target help! You've broken my logjam. Simply setting OneToMany property to false in the parent to child relation in the form did the trick I wanted. Thanks! Set skip or the SQL method would have done the same programmatically.
This was just a quick image display form for matching undata entered digital camera images with their data entered (and renamed) versions with a button for applying the data entered file number/name to the camera named files. Now if only foxpro could display raw files and zip compressed tifs... So this is a temporary local program that is not something that remotely needs to go SQL capable yet. I'm just trying to coral a 750 gig hard drive full of image files without going nuts doing it manually.
Best,
Steve
