I think you are saying that you have the JNL_NO appearing in both the master and detail block displays. I assume that your relationship between the two blocks uses this JNL_NO to associate the master and detail records together.

Confirm that when you have records in the master block the correct detail records are appearing in the detail block. However, when you are in the master block and press the insert button there is a single record being displayed in the detail block and its JNL_NO field contains the value '1' and all other fields are clear. Is this correct?

My quick answer is "don't worry about it" and consider NOT showing the JNL_NO in the detail block display. The user must not enter it during record creation and probably should not change it during record maintenance. To move a detail record to another master record normally involves a programmed 'move', not a user data change 'move'.
