Add a query to the datamodel, run the form.
The attached table grid binds and seems to work like any other tableframe.
The tablename property viewed shows:

:PRIV:__Q7980F.DB


but this table does not physically exist in the PRIV (even hidden)

Guessing it is a like an in memory tcursor.

so
attach a tcursor and 

isInMemoryTCursor()  is true

!!!

This opens up a few ideas about the times I need a small temp table in a
form or need to change the child table contents.

Conceivably you could have a unique table name of the same structure in a
DM for every instance of a form that is not the main table.
