Zoltan,

This ones been missed for a while, sorry about that. Remember, if you
dont get an answer within a few days you should probably post the
question again as it is easy to miss the occassional item when we get
busy.

KeySource is only required for Lookup datasets (see the online help).

Yes KeyLinks are required for detail datasets. The MasterLinks only
controls the relationship with the master dataset, the KeyLinks are
still required in order to properly insert and edit. Sometimes the
keylinks may contain fields that are also in the MasterLinks, but
often they are different.

Can you give us more information about this error condition? Perhaps
the callstack from when the error occurred, this may tell us where the
problem is coming from.

When MasterSearch is true on the detail dataset, it will follow the
master dataset into search mode. It is only necessary to post the
search critieria on the master. It sounds like you have already found
the MasterSearchOptions which control how the child dataset operates.

What do you mean Cancel search? You can go directly to insert from
search mode if you want, or you can perform the search and then edit
one of the results.

You only need to call ClearSearch for the master, and all child
datasets (with MasterSearch) will be cleared. You do not need to
close the datasets. Dont bother calling prepare explicitly with this,
let IBO decide whether it needs to reprepare the datasets or not.

No.

I dont know. Is this a MDI application, with merged child window
menus? What you describe should not happen, since the monitor window
should be fully independant of the MDI application. Can you debug
into this to see if the problem is with IBO or with your application?
