Parent/child many to many relationships

I have only owned the software for a couple of days, so I may be missing the answer. I have many tables that have link tables between them to represent many to many relationships, such as Persons, Phone Numbers, Addresses, Email Addresses and link tables like Persons_PhoneNumbers, Persons_Addresses, etc. How do I configure AppGini to generate pages with the Person record on top, and tabs below showing Phones, Addresses, Emails?

In AppGini, click on the parent table in the left pane, then click the button labeled "Parent/Children settings" and configure the child tables you want to display.

Before the above step, you should have configured lookup fields correctly in the child tables.

Hi,

I configured my lookup fields correctly and when I go to the table to add a new item in my application it works fine BUT when I go into appgini and enable the items in the "parent/child" settings it creates the tabs in the bottom and it shows the "add new" button, I click on it and the window opens fine but it is not allowing me to look up like it does when I add the item directly from the table I created. In other words its like the parent/child portion when enabled on the page is broken somehow.

Any ideas? I have deleted the DB and started from scratch but the problem still exist.

Thanks
