If the error occurs after an edit, it sounds like you are altering the
primary key (MEMBERID) on the main dataset and so causing a cascaded
update. You can avoid such overheads by using surrogate (generated)
key values on tables so that they never need to be updated.
Run the IB_Monitor to see what is actually happening when you post the
changes and then check the triggers etc on your tables to ensure that
there are no side-effects which may be causing the problem.
