I have experienced this bug in the past when the same report link is referenced multiple times on the same form. I would recommend creating as many copies of the report link as you need on the form that you will be making changes to records with. Including grid edit/deleting.​

    Justin,

    I don't believe you even have the option of putting the same report link on one form. The glitch I have found exists when there are multiple report links on the same form with the same source and destination table. So creating copies yields the buggy result for me. I think it also wreaks havoc on the 'editable' report feature, as it creates orphans and doesn't auto select the related field.

      Mike, did you actually duplicate the report link fields so they are two different fields?

        Yes, they are completely different fields with different field IDs.
