Thanks for the help, Crisses.  It turned out that {*$:var} was the 
correct syntax after all for an EditForm (which behaves like an included 
page, I believe) -- I just had a bug in my recipe!  Sorry about that.

DataQuery is working really well now for single tables.  As soon as I 
get it to save changes to records, I'll post an alpha version for 
testing with other databases.  You're gonna love it!  --Ben S.
