Mark,
When you say 'editing on the form', do you mean you need to launch into Grid Edit mode, from Edit Record mode, vs view record mode?

- MarkShnier__YouI mean when you are sitting on a parent record and you edit the parent record and the parent record has an embedded report link on it and the Form Properties is set to editable. The embedded report goes into great edit mode but it will know who his parent is and you can add records in Grid edit and they will not be orphans.
I am pretty sure that if you were to be in view mode and click the grid edit button on the top of the embedded report (opening up a full screen in Grid Edit mode) if you try to add a record it no longer knows who the parent is and it will be an orphan.

------------------------------- Ahh yes ok, so we are on the same page. I thought that I was able to be in view mode, click grid edit and have it associate itself, but it looks like I am misremembering.
I did find out that if you are in edit mode, then click grid edit it will associated (or like you mentioned, have an editable report link).
