Save current record in one form before moving to its subform

[clmarks]

Here is my situation. I have a master client form with a subform showing the current and previous programs that client has attended. Clicking on a button located on a specific program line opens a form showing the list of services that client is authorized to receive. Clicking on a button on the authorization line opens a form which shows all of the services that client has received based on that specific authorization.

My problem is that sometimes when we create a new authorization line and then click the button to enter a service transaction, the authorization does not save.

I have been using SenKeys to force the authorization to save and everything worked find, but we recently moved to using a WYSE thin-client setup with individual routers rather than computers. When the change took place, we started having a lot of problems. I am told that the SendKeys command is a source of some of these problems.

How can I force the new authorization line to save when the user moves on to the service (child) record without using SendKeys?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
