A couple of basic questions

[K1200]

Although I've managed to build several intermediate-level portal usages into my applications, I continue to run into traps with combinations of TO's, global fields and "show records from:" on layouts.

In hopes of being able to simplify a couple of my user interfaces, I've prepared a test file for two very basic situations.

TEST ENTRY is supposed to be a simple portal for reviewing the contents of the Test Table and for entering new Tests, regardless of which student the entry is for. It needs to show all of the Tests. Is this a valid use for a portal?

STUDENT SCORES is supposed to show an individual Test with Score and be able to step through each Test for the specified student using the Next and Previous Record functions.

Thanks in advance to anyone willing to offer guidance.
