Is it possible to update one window from another window?

I have one window (called by a main window) for the user to view and save a record. This saved info also gets saved to another record, being displayed by the main window. I would like the main window to "refresh" and show the new info without the user having to exit and reenter the record.

Any ideas? I've tried setting a bunch of different wc_common% variables in different pre/post processes, but have had no luck.

Thanks!

How does you "one window" get called from the main window. Is it post-save or on a softkey, or what?

The second window is called by a softkey from the main window. The record in the second window is saved with a pre-save process. This saves data to the record in the second window as well as the record in the main.

You are going to have to read in the item from disk and update @RECORD in your code.
