Automatically creating records in related files.

I have a main file, Items, and 2 related files, Charges and Costs. The Items file is indexed automatically with a record number field. When a new record is created in the Items file I wish to also create a new record in both the Charges and Costs file, and assign the record number from the Items file to the identifiers of the related files, thereby cementing the relationship. How can I do this?

Thanks

When defining the rels check the option allow creation of related records.

Groovey. I just wasn' looking closely enough. Can I specify the field default values on the record when it is created?

Thanks
