Display values in the called form whose data is inserted in calling form

Question

Hi,
We have a custom form (Form 1) wherein we call another form (form2) when a button is pressed in Form1.
Scenario
Form 1 - contains 3 blocks -
-->Header Block - HB,
-->Child Block - CB1 - which is child of HB and is multi records block
-->Child Block CB2 - Child of CB1
The canvas of forms 1 holds only HB and CB1 and due to business reasons we are populating CB2's table (say T2) in the post insert trigger of the CB1.
A button is pressed which opens a new form - a display only form (form 2) .
Form 2 just fetches the records that are inserted into the table T2. Note that Form 2 is also a multi record block.
Issue
Assuming that I update some value in Form 1 - block CB1 and save it ; and then click on the button...how should I make sure that the changed values are reflected in the Form 2.
Questions
1) On updating CB1 values - since this impacts values in CB2 T2 table- which trigger should this be handled.
2) how should we make sure that on clicking the button that opens Form 2, the changed values in T2 are reflected.
Regards
S
