Are there any known issues of problems with data sticking when changed on a tableview subform that is in an element bound to a field of another element? (Type being Money)

I have a form that I use as a subform in both table and formview. I have an element named HicfaDB_B28 that is a money field. (amount Billed) That element is at the bottom of the screen when viewed in formview so the user will see it exactly the way it would look as if they were viewing a printed form they have been using for years.

But when it is in table view, they see all the subforms associated with this record and I want them to see the Amount billed info  at the beginning of the list. I created a new element named HicfaDB_AmountBilled and bound it to HicfaDB_B28 and placed that new element at the top so in table view the info is in the correct place as well as were it needs to be for the form look.

Now my problem is if I edit the amount in the new element HicfaDB_AmountBilled in tableview and f10 to a new record the changes do not stick. But if I delete HicfaDB_AmountBilled from my form and move HicfaDB_B28 to the top and do the same edit in table view the changes stick.

Also if I have both elements on my form and am in form view my changes to HicfaDB_AmountBilled stick properly from either element.

I believe the bound elements to the same field should behave the same in tableview or formview.

So is my thought process wrong on what I am attempting or is it something else I need to be concerned about.

Thanks

This may sound like a really silly question but how do I get the table view spec I created to run on the subform. I have played with all the load spec and run spec commands and have failed to get it to work properly.

I have a button that when pressed  brings the user to a tab page that has the subform and turns it to tableview.

I figured I needed to run a table spec after my FormViewType() command to get the elements the user needs in the order needed displayed.

Where have I gone wrong?

Thanks


gototabpage(LE69,2)
FormViewType("Hicfa", FORM_VIEW_TYPE_Table) // changes subform to form view

//tableview spec and run command goes here

ForceRedraw()
