I have a docket system. Each docket (one record) has related line items. Each line item is either a category or a category item. So the cat. item is related to the category which are both related to the docket.

DOCKET FILE

Docket#

LINE ITEM FILE

Category#

CategoryItem#

Does anyone have any theories for a method to duplicate a docket and all its items. The trick is keeping the category and category items related.

Here's one method:

Also, Chuck posted a method in the development standards section of this forum a long time ago. You could have a look there.
