Actually, I misrepresented the situation a bit. The grid was placed there
for my own confirmation of things. Ordinarily, it is not there -- just tied
to IB_Text fields. Sorry for the misrepresentation. I could really use
some info on this -- or a suggestion for a work-around.

Thanks,

Eddie

I still wind up with the master dataset at the first record.
