Another note.

I see that you use intensively the global variables.
This is danger.

better

----------------
on addLink( inKinkName, inTableName )

  link = gDb.link( inLinkName )

  a = gDB.table( inTableName ).RecID
  b = value( member( "Tab_B_ID" ).text )
 
  link.linkRecords(a, b)
  getLinkCount

end
----------------

Better because it is more flexible and more safe
