Define two tables that have a parent - child relationship.

Create a new form, use the wizard to create a block based on the parent, then use the wizard again to create a block based on the child, and finally use the relation wizard to create a relation on the parent block.

Alternatively, read the book.

thanks mate,

I have another problem. I created a menu that will call forms. Is it possible to display only the runtime environment without a default form?. What can you advice?

Basically, no.

Create a 'splash' screen from which to hang your menu, maybe show 'buttons' through which the user can navigate to other forms. This screen usually has a large logo on it as a graphic, the default menu, and the login validation code, and not much else. Oh, it is a 'good idea' to attach ALL your libraries to this screen so that the libraries are ALL loaded in the same ORDER everytime the application is started. I don't have the time to give a full explanation of the difficulties we had at a particular installation. "Just trust me!"
