Narrative:
I was assigned to relieve radar northwest at XA36 pm local at okc, ok ATCT. Small transport X had departed at XA33 pm local and was climbed to 15000 ft then to a higher altitude. I was not told about small transport X by the controller I relieved. There was no flight progress strip in the usual position. Traffic was moderate to busy and small transport X penetrated ZFW airspace at 15000 ft without a radar handoff. There was no conflict with other aircraft. I never saw any of the normal automated data that should have been associated with this target. Our automation specialist cannot guarantee that there was a data block on the target. I have been charged with an operational deviation.

Title: SMT X UNCOORD AIRSPACE ENTRY. TRACON ARTCC INTERFAC COORD.
Narrative: I WAS ASSIGNED TO RELIEVE RADAR NW AT XA36 PM LCL AT OKC, OK ATCT. SMT X HAD DEPARTED AT XA33 PM LCL AND WAS CLBED TO 15000 FT THEN TO A HIGHER ALT. I WAS NOT TOLD ABOUT SMT X BY THE CTLR I RELIEVED. THERE WAS NO FLT PROGRESS STRIP IN THE USUAL POS. TFC WAS MODERATE TO BUSY AND SMT X PENETRATED ZFW AIRSPACE AT 15000 FT WITHOUT A RADAR HDOF. THERE WAS NO CONFLICT WITH OTHER ACFT. I NEVER SAW ANY OF THE NORMAL AUTOMATED DATA THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH THIS TARGET. OUR AUTOMATION SPECIALIST CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT THERE WAS A DATA BLOCK ON THE TARGET. I HAVE BEEN CHARGED WITH AN OPDEV.
