HELP: how to implement M:N in Forms 4.5

[Quoted] I'm sure this question has been asked before, but just the same:
How can I implement a many-to-many relationship in Dev2K Forms?
Let's assume I have three tables:
PROGRAM (*prog_id, prog name, ...)
DEVELOPER (*dev_ssn, dev_name, ...)
PROG_DEV (*prog_id, *dev_ssn)
where a program can be developed by one or more developers, and a developer can develop zero or more programs.
In my form, I have a master block (PROG_BLK, base table PROGRAM) and a detail block, where I want to display the name of all developers related to the program in the master block. I can display the dev_ssn of all developers in the detail block (from PROG_DEV), but I can't get the dev_name from DEVELOPER.
Many-to-many relationships are common in modelling. There must be a way to easily implement this in Forms. Any help would be appreciated. Reply to my email or post to the group.
Thanks,
Patrick Demets
