Hmm, and make sure that all queries which have a PK which is truly a PK in
the KeyLinks, also has the KeyLinksAutoDefine check box/Property set to OFF.
This prevents IBO generating a PK of it's own.

And Helen - just a thought but if you programtically manipulate a query e.g.
change the SQL or clear the update SQL property or something like that..
Does this have any effect on the KeyLinks property? Does it clear it when
you prepare the query again?
Just thinking..
