Is there any way to have access to a database in the manner of a parent/child or Master/Detail form without using a dbGrid for the child or detil information? I would like to use fields for the child info no different than a normasl form.

Also, is it possible to have nested child/detail information? For instance, a patient with multiple corresponding office visite, each with multiple corresponding prescriptions given on that visit?

Thanks in advance,
Mike

you could try to use a control array to create your own grid...

you could also try to use the DataRepeater control, but be prepared for a bit of investigation.

Be careful!
never touch to dbgrid datagrid or whatever "grid" supplied by vb if you want to keep control all over the "beast" you use: when you want to use it "bound" with "unbound" column it's a mess and the reciproque is also true, if you want to get good and controled results build your own array of textbox, it's a bit longer at the design time but .....
