[FX.php List] Spawning a related record with FMNew

[Jason H.Awbrey]

Dennis,

So long as you have a crate relationship setup between the two files, 
you can create a related record by simply setting the related field in 
the FX query (and the related field is on the layout you are 
referencing, of course!).
