You didn't mention what version you are on, but in V8 you can go into
customization mode, open up your form and then on the tools menu select
customization. Once that has opened click on tools, data tools. Add a
new custom view. Call it Customer. Parent view would be OrderHed.
Column name would be CustNum. That should tie in the customer record
automatically and now you can place a text box anywhere you want and
use the Customer View as the datasource and comment as the field. No
buttons required.
