I have two forms.

Form 1 is bound to a readonlylistbase
Form 2 is bound to an editableroot that derives it data from the same table as the readonlylistbase.
When I delete the editableroot on Form 2 is there a way to call Form 1 to update the readonlylistbase?

Thanks

Thank you very much. That is exactly what I was looking for.

Big thank you from me too, I've been meaning to ask about that for ages.

On a side note, the technique of loading the Info object with the data from the amended Editable object, rather than round-tripping the database, is a stroke of genius!
